ORDER OF THE BOARD

(by J.D.

Durnelle):

This matter comes before the Board upon receipt of an Agency

Recommendation dated October

5,

1988.

The recommendation refers

to

a

request from Petitioner, Meredosia Tank Cleaners,

for

a

30

day provisional variance from the 90—day on—site limitations

for

hazardous wastes set forth at 35

Ill. Adm. Code 722.134(b).

Upon receipt of the request the Agency issued

its

recommendation, concluding

that the hazardous wastes must remain

on—site for longer than

90 days due

to unforeseen,

temporary and

uncontrollable circumstances and failure to grant the requested

30—day provisional variance would impose an arbitrary or

unreasonable hardship on Petitioner.

The Board concurs with the Agency Recommendation;

Petitioner

is granted

a provisional variance from 35

Ill. Mm.

Code

722.134(b)

from October

24,

1988 until November

23,

1988.

IT

IS

SO ORDERED.
