ORDER

OF THE BOARD (by Mr. Seaman):

The Opinion and Order in the captioned cause, dated September 19, 1974,

is hereby modified to extend the variance granted for the Robert Taylor

Homes

from

October 26, 1974 to February 26, 1975. The Chicago Housing

Authority states that although compactor facilities at Robert Taylor

Homes are being constructed, the contractor has been hindered in this

project by acts of vandalism, tenant opposition, material shortages,

and the failure of the concrete subcontractor to complete his portion

of the work due to vandalism and tenant difficulties.

The Chicago Housing Authority further states that through an

oversight, a contract was not let for the refuse disposal system at

5040 N. Kenmore and thus work is not underway on that project at this

time nor can a completion date be anticipated. To meet the goal of

eliminating air pollution by incineration of solid waste at this site,

the Chicago Housing Authority states that it will immediately cease the

burning of refuse at 5040 N. Kenniore and have refuse hauled away by

private scavenger.

The Chicago Housing Authority is hereby ordered to cease incineration

of solid waste at 5040 N. Kenmore.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

I, Christan L. Moffett, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control

Board, does hereby certify t at the above Order was adopted on this
