(Administrative Citation)
ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
This matter comes before the Board upon the March 25, 1997 filing of an
administrative citation pursuant to Section 31.1 of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415
ILCS 5/31.1 (1994)) by the County of Will (County). A copy of that administrative citation is
attached hereto. Service of the administrative citation was made upon Space Available
Corporation (respondent) on March 24, 1997. The County alleges that on February 27, 1997
respondent, present owner and/or operator of a facility located at 303 Mound Road, Will
County, Illinois, and commonly known to the County as Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency site #1970855027, violated Sections 21(p)(1) and 21(p)(3) of the Act. The statutory
penalty established for each violation is $500 pursuant to Section 42(b)(4) of the Act.
Respondent has not filed a petition for review with the Clerk of the Board within 35
days of the date of service as allowed by Section 31.1(d)(1) of the Act. Therefore, the Board
finds respondent has violated the provisions alleged in the administrative citation. Since there
are two (2) such violations, the total penalty to be imposed is set at $1,000.
1.
It is hereby ordered that, unless the penalty has already been paid, within 30
days of the date of this order, respondent shall, by certified check or money
order payable to the County of Will, pay a penalty in the amount of $1,000
which is to be sent to:
Will County Land Use Department
Solid Waste Division
Attn: Julie Juntunen
Environmental Enforcement Officer
501 Ella Avenue
Joliet, Illinois 60433
2.
Respondent shall include the remittance form and write the case name and
number and its social security number or federal employer identification number
on the certified check or money order.
2
3.
Penalties unpaid after the due date shall accrue interest pursuant to Section 42(g)
of the Act.
4.
Payment of this penalty does not prevent future prosecution if the violation
continues.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Section 41 of the Environmental Protection Act (415 ILCS 5/41 (1994)) provides for
the appeal of final Board orders to the Illinois Appellate Court within 35 days of the date of
service of this order. The Rules of the Supreme Court of Illinois establish filing requirements.

I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, hereby certify that
the above order was adopted on the 15th day of May, 1997, by a vote of 6-0.
Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
Illinois Pollution Control Board
