ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J.D.

Dumelle):

This matter comes before the Board upon the July

29, 1988

filing of the petition for variance by Petitioner,

B.F. Goodrich

Company.

Pursuant to

35

Ill.

Adm. Code 104.121 the petition

is

deficient

insofar

as

it

fails

to provide authority for

its claim

that granting the petition

is not inconsistent with federal

laws..

Page

16 of the petition states

as follows:

“Federal effluent limitations

for BOD5 and TSS

for

this

plant

cannot

be

calculated

until

after

one

year

of

biomonitoring

testing

is

completed....

Because

federal

effluent

limitations have

not yet

been calculated,

and

they

would

be

the

applicable

federal

law,

there now exists no federal

law or regulations

which

might

preclude

and

granting

of

a

variance.”

More than the above

is needed

to demonstrate consistency

with federal

law.

Petitioner

is hereby directed

to file an

amended petition curing the above

noted defect.

If

the Board does not receive an amended petition within

45

days of

the date of this Order curing the above—noted defect this

matter will

be subject

to dismissal.

IT

IS

SO ORDERED.

I,

Dorothy M.
