    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
    On October 25, 2000, A. E. Staley Manufacturing Company (Staley) filed a petition for
    review of an Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) determination granting a joint
    construction and operating permit (permit) with conditions. Staley maintains that certain
    conditions of the permit are “arbitrary, capricious, without merit, and pose unreasonable hardship
    on Staley.” Pet. at 2. The Board accepts this matter for hearing.
    The Board’s rules require that the Agency file the entire Agency record of its decision
    within 14 days of notice of the petition. See 35 Ill. Adm. Code 105.102. Hearing must be
    scheduled and completed in a timely manner, pursuant to the applicable statutory decision
    deadline, or the deadline as extended by waiver. See 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.105.
    Absent any future waivers of the decision deadline, the statutory decision deadline is now
    February 22, 2001 (120 days from October 25, 2000); the Board meeting immediately preceding
    the decision deadline is scheduled for February 15, 2001.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, hereby certify that the
    above order was adopted on the 2nd day of November 2000 by a vote of 7-0.
    Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
    Illinois Pollution Control Board
