OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by M. Nardulli):
This matter comes before the Board upon a complaint filed
April 20 1990 on behalf of the People of the State of Illinois
(“People”), by and through its attorney, Neil F. Hartigan,
Attorney General of the State of Illinois, against Material
Service Corporation (“Material Service”) located in Fairmont,
Vermilion County, Illinois. The complaint alleges that Material
Service has violated Sections 9(a) and (b) of the Illinois
Environmental Protection Act (“Act”), Ill. Rev. Stat. 1989, ch.
lll~, pars. 1001, et. seq., and 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201.143 of the
Board’s rules and regulations.
Hearing on this matter was held July 6, 1990 in Danville,
Vermilion County, Illinois. At hearing, the parties submitted a
Stipulation and Settlement Agreement, executed by the parties.
The Stipulation sets forth facts pertaining to the nature,
operations, and circumstances surrounding the claimed
violations. Material Service admits to past violations of
Section 9(a) and (b) of the Act and 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201.143 and
agrees to pay a civil penalty of four thousand dollars
($4,000). Material Service further agrees to cease and desist
from the alleged violations.
The Board finds the Settlement Agreement acceptable under 35
Ill. Adm. Code 103.180. This Settlement Agreement in no way
affects respondent’s responsibility to comply with any federal,
state or local regulations, including but not limited to the Act
and the Board’s pollution control regulations.
This Opinion constitutes the Board’s findings of tact and
conclusions of law in this matter.
