    Petitioner,
    v.
    )
    PCB 87—149
    ILLINOIS ENVIRONMENTAL
    PROTECTION AGENCY,
    Respondent.
    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J. Anderson):
    Among the issues in this action is a challenge to the
    validity of the Board regulation underlying this permit appeal.
    On November 25, 1987, the Board issued an Order requiring the
    parties to present briefs by December 16, 1987 “concerning the
    burdens of proof, standards of review and relevant evidence to be
    considered” at the hearing to be held in this matter. No briefs
    were filed.
    However, on December 18, the Agency filed a motion for
    extension of time which recites that it had been advised by USI
    that USI would move for postponement of briefing until after
    hearing. The Agency opposed any such request from USI, but also
    asked the Board to grant it an extension similar to any granted
    to USI.
    USI has made
    rio
    motion.
    The Board issued its November 25 Order so that the scope of
    issues and information to be presented at hearing could be
    clarified and hearing time minimized; this objective is hardly
    served by post hearing subinittals. The parties shall file
    responses to the Board’s November 25, 1987 Order no later than
    January 27, 1988. In the event that either party fails to so
    file, the Board will consider issuance of appropriate sanctions.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
