    BENJAMIN DAUM,
    Complainant,
    v,

    PCB 80-17
    VILLAGE OF
    ROSELLE,
    Respondent.
    ORDER OF THE
    BOARD (by J.D.
    Dumelle):
    An enforcement
    action was filed against the Village
    of
    Roselle
    (Village)
    on January
    21,
    1980,
    alleging repeated overflows
    of sewage in violation
    of Rule 602(b) of Chapter 3:
    Water
    Pollution.
    On
    December
    4,
    1980 the
    Board found that the Village
    had violated
    that rule and ordered that it
    submit a plan to the
    Illinois Environmental
    Protection Agency
    (Agency)
    to minimize
    overflows.
    Since
    no such plan had been filed
    as of June
    25,
    1981,
    the Board ordered
    the Village to file
    within 30 days.
    The plan
    was finally filed on September 3,
    1981.
    On November 14,
    1981 the
    Agency filed its
    comments on the plan
    indicating that the plan is
    satisfactory as
    it affects Mr. Daum,
    This
    is based upon the lack
    of backups since
    September,
    1979 at
    Mr. Daum’s residence and the
    Villag&s
    allegation that bolt—down
    manhole lids have been
    installed to discourage vandalism.
    Given that the Board
    has
    no information before it to
    indicate the contrary,
    the Board finds the plan to be acceptable,
    and accomplished, and that the Village has satisfied the earlier
    Board Orders in this proceeding.
    The Board does, however,
    note the considerable delay
    in
    presentation of an adequate
    plan,
    and points out that any necessary extensions
    in the time
    needed to comply
    should have
    been requested from the Board by
    a proper motion
    indicating the reason
    for such extensions.
    Proceedings in
    this
    matter are hereby closed.
    IT IS
    SO
    ORDERED.
    I,
    Christan
    L,
    Moffett, Clerk of the Illinois
    Pollution
    Control Board,
    hereby certify that the
    above Order was adopted
    on the
    ~j~’
    day of
    ,
    1981
    by a vote of
    _______
