    On July 7,

    November 30,
    1981 to submit additional
    amendments to its proposal

    Numerous grounds are given for this extension, the most
    important of which are:
    1.
    Significant and substantial written comments from
    the general public concerning the original proposal;
    2.
    Resignation of the Illinois Environmental Protection
    Agency’s (Agency) Division Manager of the Division
    of Land Pollution Control;
    3.
    The reassignment of the Agency’s staff attorney
    previously responsible for representing the Agency
    in this matter;
    4.
    The need to incorporate an Open Dump Inventory
    program into the proposal which the Agency is in
    the process of implementing;
    5.
    The need to incorporate a landfill siting bill which
    was recently passed by the state legislature;
    6.
    The Agency’s need to spend considerable time imple-
    menting the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
    and Underground Injection Control programs within
    the next few months; and
    7.
    The possible need to consider changes
    in the proposal
    based upon other legislation which is awaiting the
    Governor’s signature.
    For these reasons the Board hereby grants an extension
    until November
    1,
    1981 for the Agency to submit an amended
    proposal.
    The Board notes, however, that some of the testimony at
    the first four hearings may become irrelevant due to changes
    in the proposal.
    In order not to burden the record unnecessarily,
    43-407
    —2—
    the Board requests the Agency to submit any amendments to
    the
    proposal with a motion to strike irrelevant portions of the
    existing testimony,
    if any.
    IT
    IS SO ORDERED.
