    ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY,
    Respondent.
    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by Mr. Dumelle):
    On July
    6, 1977 Petitioner requested a variance.
    The petition
    is inadequate for failure to comply with the requirements
    of Rule 401
    of the Board’s Procedural Rules and
    is hereby dismissed without
    prejudice.
    If Petitioner wishes to correct the inadequacies as
    listed below it may refile.
    The Petitioner failed to state which Board Rules with which it
    cannot comply.
    It should be noted that the Board lacks jurisdiction
    to grant relief from the requirements
    of Petitioner’s NPDES permit.
    The petition does not describe the locale around the nursing home
    nor does it list the number of employees.
    No data is supplied
    which would indicate the nature of Petitioner’s present effluent
    or why the Board’s effluent standards cannot be met.
    The time-
    table and costs for compliance are not spelled out.
    There is no
    information on the present and future environmental effects of
    Petitioner’s
    non
    complying
    discharge.
    There
    should
    be
    a
    comparison
    between the costs of connection to the sanitary sewer and upgrading
    of Petitioner’s present facilities.
    The petition should also list
    proposed interim effluent limitations.
    Finally the Petitioner
