ORDER OF THE BOARD

(by

B.

Forcade):

This matter

is before the Board

on a November 26,

1990,

motion for extension of

time filed by petitioner General Motors

Corporation

(“GMC”).

On October

11,

1990,

the Board issued an

order findino that GMC’s petition for site—specific rulemaking

was deficient,

in that

it did not address the questions contained

in the Analysis of Economic and Budgetary Effects questionnaire,

and did not meet the requirements

for incorporation by reference

of prior preceedings.

The Board allowed GMC 45 days, that

is,

until November

26,

1990,

to cure these deficiencies.

GMC seeks

an extension of that deadline, until

December 21,

1990,

to

supplement

its site—specific rulemaking petition.

In support of

its request, GMC states that

it did not

receive

a copy of the October

11,

1990 order until the week

of

October

29,

1990.

GMC also states that it has obtained the

record of the prior proceeding which

it wishes

to incorporate,

and that

it

is working

to address the questions on the economic

effects questionnaire.

GMC’s motion for extension of

time is granted.

The Board

notes that the seven day period

to respond

to this motion has not

run.

However,

the Board finds that undue delay would result

if

it does not rule on the

today.

See

35 Ill. Adm.

Code 101.241

(b).
