    ORDER OF
    THE BOARD
    (by M. Nardulli):
    This matter
    comes before
    the
    Board on
    a motion for expedited
    decision filed on behalf of the petitioners on July 7,
    1989.
    The
    petitioners are seeking a variance under
    the Board’s
    regulation
    in
    35
    Ill.
    Adm. Code Section 237.103 to allow the open burning of
    explosive waste.
    The motion states that the petitioners are not
    presently burning their wastes and will not do so until the
    variance
    is granted.
    The petitioner maintains that this causes
    unnecessary expense and presents safety hazards greater than
    those that occur
    if
    variance was granted.

    that the transcripts of the hearing for this
    matter were received by the Board on July 10, 1989.
    Therefore,
    the record is now complete and the case
    is ready to be decided by
    the Board.
    In response to the petition for expedited decision,
    the Board hereby agrees to endeavor
    to expedite the decision
    making process
    in this matter and will issue
    the Opinion and
    Order
    at the earliest possible date.
    IT
    IS
    SO ORDERED.
