    ORDER
    OF
    TEE
    BOARD
    (by
    I
    Goodman):
    On
    June
    3,
    1982 a joint motion for reconsideration of the
    Board’s
    May
    27, 1982 Order in this matter was filed.
    On that
    same
    day,
    Petitioner
    filed
    a
    motion
    requesting
    opportunity
    for
    oral
    argument
    on
    the
    joint
    motion.
    The
    motion
    for
    oral
    argument
    is
    denied.
    The
    joint
    motion
    for
    reconsideration
    is
    granted.
    The
    joint
    motion
    requests
    that
    no
    public
    hearing
    in
    this
    Section
    40.1
    appeal
    be
    held.
    Petitioner
    and
    Respondent
    argue
    that
    pursuant
    to
    that
    Section
    the
    record
    is
    complete
    and
    limited
    to
    that
    developed
    at
    the
    county
    public
    hearing
    and
    that
    an
    additional
    public
    hearing
    will
    serve
    no
    purpose.
    The
    Board
    disagrees
    and
    will
    require
    that
    a
    public
    hearing,
    presided
    over
    by
    its
    hearing
    officer,
    be
    held.
    The
    mandate
    of the Illinois
    Environmental
    Protection
    Act
    as
    a
    whole
    and
    since
    its
    inception,
    has
    been
    to
    provide
    the
    public
    access
    and
    input
    into
    Board pro-
    ceedings.
    The
    hearing
    conducted
    at
    the
    local
    government
    level
    in
    this
    matter
    was
    not
    a
    Board
    proceeding.
    A
    public
    hearing
    is
    now
    necessary
    to
    provide
    the
    public
    access
    in
    this
    Section
    40.1
    appeal.
    The public hearing noticed for June 21,
    1982 is continued until
    July
    1, 1982 or as soon thereafter as possible.
    Additionally, the
    parties are directed to concurrently brief their legal arguments
    and submit these no later than June 24,
    1982.
    Also on June 3,
    1982 the parties entered a joint motion
    requesting
    that
    the
    Board
    limit the record on appeal to those
    documents
    already
    filed,
    and
    stipulated
    to by the parties.
    The
    parties
    may
    between
    themselves
    stipulate
    the
    record,
    but
    the
    motion
    to
    so
    limit
    the
    record
    before
    the
    Board
    is
    denied.
    The
    record
    will
    consist
    of
    the
    public
    hearing
    record,
    those
    documents
    already
    filed
    by
    the
    parties,
    and
    those
    submitted
    at
    the
    public
    hearing,
    as
    statutorily
    permitted
    under
    Section
    40
    1.
    IT
    IS
    SO
    ORDERED.
