    INTERIM ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by W.
    J. Nega):
    The Board finds that the Stipulation and Proposal for Settle-
    ment filed on April
    25,
    1984 is generally acceptable.
    However,
    some
    of
    the
    dates for compliance which are mentioned
    in the proposed settlement agreement have already elapsed.
    The Board would appreciate additional
    information as to the
    current status oE the preliminary
    sewer system work and the
    interim compliance measures.
    For example, on page fourteen of the Stipulation, the Res-
    pondent has indicated that all sources of unauthorized inflow
    into the sewer system (including,
    but not limited to,
    downspouts,
    footing tiles,
    gravity pumps,
    sump pumps,
    storii
    inlets,
    inverts,
    and leaking manhole
    sides) shall be located by March,
    1984.
    Has
    this now been accomplished?
    Similarly, has the sewer system map
    already been completed?
    How many manholes which are subject to
    flooding have been raised or sealed so far?
    Have routine observa-
    tions of the sewer
    lines
    (manholes) which experience surcharging
    begun yet?
    In reference to the proposed interim compliance measures for
    the Galva NE plant and the Galva
    SW plant which are detailed on
    pages sixteen through twenty
    of the Stipulation, the Board believes
    that information on the current situation should be provided
    (i.e., what has been accomplished so far, what still needs to be
    done, etc.).
    Accordingly, the parties are ordered to submit more informa-
    tion as to the current status of the preliminary sewer system
    work and the interim compliance measures within 45 days of the
    date of this Interim Order.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
