    On January 22, 1974,
    the EPA filed
    a motion with the
    Board to modify its Order in this action.
    The motion is
    granted.
    The Board erred in ordering the parties to implement
    the July 24,
    1973, Conditions and Provisions~of Settlement.
    This was, in fact, merely
    a “tentative settlement”
    (R—4).
    A
    final and fully agreed-upon,
    signed settlement was filed with
    the Board on November 28, 1973.

    dates in

    Opinion and Order
    (#73-55 con-
    solidated with #73—174)

    two changes are made.
