    SUPPLEMENTAL OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J. Marlin):
    This matter comes before the Board on a Motion for
    Reconsideration filed by Ekco Glaco Corporation (Ekco) on
    December 19, 1986. The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
    (Agency) filed a Response on January 2, 1986. In its motion,
    Ekco requests that the Board modify its Opinion and Order of
    November 20, 1986 which had granted Ekco a variance from 35 Ill.
    Adm. Code 215.204(j)(l) and 215.205 until January 1, 1987.
    Specifically, Ekco is seeking that the variance granted by the
    Board on November 20, 1986 be extended until February 15, 1987.
    Ekco states that it will not be in compliance by January 1, 1987
    due to delays and complications it has encountered in the
    procurement and installation of volatile organic material (VOM)
    control equipment. However, Ekco asserts that its compliance
    plan will be completed by February 15, 1987. In its Response,
    the Agency states that it has no objection to extending the
    variance until February 15, 1987 and that it fully expects Ekco’s
    afterburner to be installed and operating by that date. In light
    of Ekco’s good faith efforts toward attaining compliance and the
    fact that in this instance no environmental impact will result
    from the 45—day variance extension, the Board will grant Ecko’s
    motion to modify the Board’s Order of November 20. Therefore,
    Ekco’s variance shall extend until February 15, 1987.
    ORDER
    The Board hereby modifies its Order of November 20, 1986 in
    this matter to read as follows:
    The Board hereby grants Ekco Glaco a variance from 35 Ill.
    Adm. Code 2l5.204(j)(l) and 215.205 from November 20, 1986 to
    February 15, 1987, subject to the following conditions:
    (1) Ekco Glaco shall use coating materials which have a VOM
    content less than or equal to those presently used.
    (2) Within thirty (30) days of the date of this Order, Ekco
    Glaco shall reapply for an operating permit for its
    74-387

    coating lines (I.D. 4031 600 FBT, No. 75060010),
    pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201.157.
    Any subsequent
    application for renewal of this permit, to the extent
    that it encompasses operation of the uncontrolled used
    pan coating line, shall provide information to the
    Agency adequate to demonstrate that the operation of
    that line is in compliance pursuant to the internal
    offset rule,
    35
    Ill. Adm. Code 215.207.
    (3) Prior to the initiation of construction of any VOM
    control system, Ekco Glaco shall timely submit an
    application for a construction permit for that system in
    accordance with 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201.152.,
    Construction
    shall not be begun until a construction permit is
    issued.
    Operation of the emission control system is not
    allowed until an operating permit is issued by the
    Agency, pursuant to Section 35 Ill. Adm. 201.143.
    (4) The Agency shall be notified in writing at the address
    provided below of any stack tests to be performed at the
    facility at least five working days before such stack
    tests take place.

    test.
