(Administrative Citation)
ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
This matter comes before the Board upon the April 24, 1997 filing of an administrative
citation pursuant to Section 31.1 of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) by the
Montgomery County (County). A copy of that administrative citation is attached hereto.
Service of the administrative citation was made upon Envotech Illinois, Inc. (respondent) on
April 18, 1997. The County alleges that on February 20, 1997, respondent, present owner
and/or operator of a facility located in Montgomery County and commonly known as
Litchfield-Hillsboro Landfill/Envotech Illinois Landfill, violated Section 21(o)(5) 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 that respondent has violated the provisions alleged in the administrative citation. Since
there is one (1) such violation, the total penalty to be imposed is set at $500.
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 Montgomery County Treasurer, pay a penalty in the
amount of $500 which is to be sent to:
Montgomery County Health Department
ATTN: Amy Stewart, Director
South Route 185
Hillsboro, Illinois 62049
2.
Respondent shall include the remittance form and write the case name and
number and its social security 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.
(See also 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.246 “Motions for Reconsideration.”)
I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, hereby certify that
the above order was adopted on the 5th day of June 1997, by a vote of 7-0.
Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
Illinois Pollution Control Board
