    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by B. Forcade):
    On June
    23,
    1989, Acme Steel Company
    (“Acme”) filed an
    agreed motion for stay of proceedings, and a waiver until
    November
    2,
    1989.
    The Board notes that November
    2,
    1989
    is 112
    days from today.
    Since that is less
    time than is normally
    required for actions of this type, the Board cannot grant a
    stay.
    The Board also notes that this 1987 case has not yet gone
    to hearing.
    Also,
    the two previously scheduled hearings have
    been cancelled after notice of hearing has been published;
    this
    misinforms
    the public and wastes Board
    resources.
    The Board directs the hearing officer
    to schedule a hearing
    within 14 days and complete such hearing within 60 days.
    This
    schedule may be extended only if Acme provides a sufficient
    waiver of decision deadline to allow ample time for any stay and
    reasonable Board hearing and decision.
    The Board also directs
    the hearing officer that once notice of any future hearing has
    been published,
    such hearing shall proceed absent emergency or
    extreme circumstances.
    The motion for stay
    is denied.
    IT
    IS SO ORDERED
    I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the
    Illinois Pollution Control
    Board, hereby certify
