ORDER
OF
THE
BOARD
(by J. Anderson)
On June 15.
1984,
the Board received the mandate of the
Fourth District Appellate Court in Macoupin Coun~y_Housing
~uthor~v.IPCB,IEPA,_and
City_of
Mt.
olrve,
Gem.
No,
T-83~-O7~
May
7,
1984.
The Court reversed arid remanded the action for
the
purpose of holding a hearing.
While it
is unclear whether the 90 day decision deadline
of
Section 38(a)
of the Act applies to this action on remand-
the
Board will attempt to render its decision on or before
September 13. the 90th day following the Board’s receipt of
the
remand. unless of course
a waiver of any otherwise applicable
decision deadline is received or the clock
is restarted by the
filing of an amended petition.
In order to meet this schedule,
the Board directs
that hearing be scheduled on or before July
13
and held on or before August
13,
1984.
rfhe Board notes that.
since the record in this case is
nearly a year old,
it may not accurately reflect current water
usage figures at the housing pro-~ect. the treatment capability
and
performance of the South Plant or the status
of
the City’s
progress under the construction grant program.
Additionally,
the
Board notes that, at p.
3 of the slip opinion, the appellate
court infers that the Housing Authority would have been more
correctly joined as a petitioner rather than a respondent.
The
Board suggests that the issues at hearing would be brought into
sharper focus by the early filing of an amended petition
supplying supplemental information
and
correcting any
misalignment of parties.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
