    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by J. Anderson):
    On November 29,
    1990, the Illinois Utility Group (“Utility
    Group”)
    filed a proposal for rulemaking that seeks to amend the
    development, operating,
    and reporting requirements for non—
    hazardous waste landfills.
    While the proposal satisfies many of
    the informational and content requirements of 35 Ill.
    Adin.
    Code
    102.121,
    it is deficient in that:
    1)
    The petition does not contain any information
    on the economic impact of the proposed rule,
    or address the questions contained in the
    Analysis of Economic and Budgetary Effects
    questionnaire,
    as required by Section
    102.121(c).
    The Board is usually required to
    submit this information to the Joint
    Committee on Administrative Rules whether one
    or many sources are affected by a rulemaking.
    2)
    the Utility Group states that much of the
    information generated in the prior Economic
    Impact Study
    (“EcIS”)
    in R88-7
    is applicable
    to the instant proposal.
    The Utility Group,
    has not specified which EcIS-related
    information it is referring to, nor does it
    include any copies of such material (if it is
    to be incorporated by reference in this
    proceeding), as required by Section
    102.121(f).
    This petition will not be accepted for hearing within the
    meaning of Section 28 of the Act until the above deficienies are
    cured.
    If the Utility Group fails to file supplemental materials
    curing the above-noted deficiencies on or before February 4,
    1991, this petition will be subject to dismissal.
    As a final
    note,
    the Utility Group requests that the Board waive the 200
    signature requirement of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 102
    •
    121(h).
    We hereby
    grant the request.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    Board Member J.
    Duraelle concurred.
