PROPOSED RULE SECOND FIRST NOTICE.

ORDER OF THE BOARD (by 

Anderson):

This matter is being returned to First Notice pursuant to

Section 5.01(d) of the Illinois ~dmiriistrative Procedure Act

(Ill. Rev. Stat. 1987, ch. 127, par. 1001 et seq., par.

1005.01(d)), which precludes adoption of any proposed rule more

than one year after original first notice publication.

Delays in the progress of this case have been occasioned by

an extension in the pre—hearing preparation schedule, requested

by both major participants, and by necessary accommodation of

substitution of counsel for the Environmental Protection

Agency. Public hearings were held in this matter on February 8,

1989. Testimony, public comments and briefs of participants have

been received by the Board. Persons having provided such

testimony, comments and/or briefs previously in this proceeding

need not do so again. Following expiration of the forthcoming

First Notice period, the Board expects to promptly file its

decision and to submit appropriate Second Notice to the Joint

Committee on Administrative Rules. The following First Notice

proposal, however, is identical with that originally proposed by

the Board in its Order of April 21, 1988. This action is in no

way to be construed as the Board’s substantive position with

regard to the merits of this matter.

The Board hereby adopts the proposal set forth below for

First Notice and directs the Hearing Officer to cause the

publication of the proposal in the Illinois Register.

ORDER

The Board directs the Hearing Officer to submit the

following proposed amendments to the Secretary of State’s Office

for First Notice publication.
