ORDER OF THE BOARD

(by J,

Anderson):

This petition,

filed by Bibb

&

Associates

on behalf of Midwest

Solvents,

requests

a variance from old Rule

206

(a)

of Chapter

2.

The petition is generally deficient in a number of respects,

failing

to contain most of the information required by 35 Ill. Mm.

Code

104.121.

The petition assumes the Board has access to Agency

permit applications;

the Board does not, and is therefore unsure

of cornpany’s

location,

what

type

of operation it is, air quality

of the region,

etc.

The petition contains no program for bringing

the boilers into compliance within the statutory

5 year variance

maximum period

——

if

a

permanent 700 pm limit is desired, the

request should have been for a site—specific rule change.

The

petition also fails to request hearing,

or to waive it and provide

an affidavit in support of the facts alleged,

as required by 35

Iii.

i½dm.

Code 104.124.

If an amended petition curing these defects

is not filed

within 45 days of the date of this Order,

this petition will be

subject to dismissal.

IT IS SO ORDEPED,

I, Christan

L.

Moffett, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution

Control Board, hereby certify that the above

Order was adopted

on the~~

day of
