    ORDER
    OF
    THE
    BOARD (by J.D. Dumelle):
    This
    matter is accepted for hearing. Hearing
    must
    be
    ~hedu1ed within 14 days of the date of this Order and completed
    .~‘ithin
    60 days of the date of this Order. The hearing officer
    ~iai1 inform the Clerk of the Board of the time and location of
    the
    hearing at least 40 days in advance of heating so that public
    notice of hearing may be published. After hearing, the hearing
    ufficer shall submit an exhibit list and all actual exhibits to
    the Board within 5 days of the hearing. The hearIng officer may
    by order set a schedule for submission of briefs. But such
    .~chedu1e
    shall provide for final filings as expeditiously as
    :c.ssible arid in no event later than 70 days from the date of this
    Urder.
    If
    after appropriate consultation with the parties, the
    ~rties
    fail to provide an acceptable hearing date or if after an
    ~:tempt the hearing
    officer is unable to consult with the
    parties,
    the hearing officer shall unilaterally set a hearing
    dnt~
    in conformance with the schedule above. This schedule will
    ~iy provide the Board a very short time period to deliberate and
    r:eecb
    a
    decision before the due date. The hearing officer and
    i~’ie
    parties are encouraged to expedite this proceeding as much as
    The hearing officer
    may extend this schedule only on a
    ~.‘;~:Lverof
    the decision deadline by the petitioner and only for
    th~equivalent or fewer number of days that the decision deadline
    ~iaived,
    Such waivers must be provided in writing to the Clerk
    UI the Board.
    Because this proceeding is the type for which the Illinois
    ~nvironrnenta1
    Protection Act sets a very short statutory deadline
    fr decisionmaking, absent a
    waiver, the Board will grant
    •~.~an~ionsor modifications only in unusual circumstances.
    Any
    sucti r~c.i:iorimust set forth
    an alternative schedule for notice,
    64-93
    —2—
    hearing, and final submissions, as well as the deadline for
    decision, including response time to such a motion. However, no
    such motion shall negate the obligation of the hearing officer to
    set a date pursuant to the second paragraph of this Order.
    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
    /~~-
