    On February 24, 1999, the Illinois Attorney General and Marathon Oil Company, a

    requesting relief from the hearing requirement pursuant to Section 31(c)(2) of the
    Environmental Protection Act (415 ILCS 5/31(c)(2) (1996)). The Board directs the Clerk of
    the Board to cause publication of the required newspaper notice for the stipulation and
    proposal for settlement and request for relief from hearing concerning the complaint filed by
    the Illinois Attorney General on behalf of the People of the State of Illinois and the Illinois

    file a written demand for hearing within 21 days after receiving the notice. If a hearing is
    requested, the Board will accordingly deny the parties’ request for relief and schedule a
    hearing.
