ORDER OF THE BOARD

(by J. Anderson):

This petition was received by the Board January

3,

1986;

35

Ill.

Adm. Code 306.373 provides that no petition shall

be

accepted by the Board after January 1,

1986.

However, the Board

notes that

this petition was mailed to the Board’s old address

via certified mail on December 26,

1985.

Given

the fact that the

current

(1982) printed version of the Board’s procedural rules

list the old address,

as well

as

the holiday-related

slow-down of

mail service,

the Board will accept the petition, finding

that

the City has substantially complied with the filing deadline.

Hearing in this matter will be scheduled as expeditiously as

is

practicable,

consistent with the need

of the Board and the Agency

to coordinate and prioritize

the handling of this and the other

20 recently filed petitions.

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

_____

day of

~

by a vote

of

Clerk
