ORDER OF THE BOARD
(by J.
Anderson):
On June 30,
1981,
the Agency moved for clarification of the
Board’s Order of June 10,
1981.
Specifically,
it is requested
that the stay be limited to those conditions which were the subject
of Album’s April 14,
1981 Motion for Stay of Permit Conditions.
Pursuant to leave granted by the Board orally at its July
9 meeting,
Album
filed its Response on July
13,
1981.
Album’s April
14 motion sought a stay of paragraph
1 of both
its construction and its operating permit, which contain expiration
dates.
Album
also contested paragraph 2(a)
of its operating permit
which requires prior Agency approval of a Special Waste Disposal
Application for each special waste Album
wishes to accept.
The balance of the challenged operating permit conditions
require Album
to conduct incinerator test burns and discrepancy
tests on special waste shipments
2(b-c),
to limit its incinerator
feed rate
3(b),
to compile incinerator logs
(4(a—b),
and to
apply
for supplemental construction permits
for wastes exceeding
the criteria of conditions 2(a), with operating permits contingent
on completion of tests required by Condition 3 of its construction
permit
(6).
Challenged condition 3(d) of the construction permit
requires a certain stack test.
Other challenged construction
conditions include installation of monitors
(2(a-b),
a plan for
disposal of wastes other than by incineration(4),
installation of
an incineration interlock system
(5), compliance with Requirements
for Determination of Waste Similarity
(6), and a limitation of
future operating permits to successfully tested waste streams
(7).
The Board finds that “the two conditions
which
were the
subject of Album’s April 14 motion
are inextricably intertwined
with all of the remaining contested permit conditions”
(Response,
p.
3).
As the Agency has not specified that any environmental
harm has resulted or will result from continuation of a stay of
43—47
2
all contested conditions prior to a decision by the Board, and
as the parties appear to be moving this action expeditiously,
the Board reaffirms its rulings of May
1 and June 10 staying all
contested
permit
conditions.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Mr.
Dumelle
and
Mr.
Werner
concurred.
