    Opinion
    & Order of
    the
    Board on Motion
    for
    Clarification
    and
    Stay
    (by Mr. Currie):
    Our order of June
    29,
    1972
    in
    these
    cases
    granted a variance
    on
    certain conditions including the payment
    of
    money penalties for
    past violations.
    Desiring to seek judicial review, the District asks
    us
    to
    stay the penalty pending review,
    and to clarify whether payment
    of
    the penalty
    is
    a condition of the variance.
    It is,as
    the
    order
    says; but in accord with precedent
    (e.g., Spartan Printing Co~
    V.
    EPA,
    #71-19
    (June 23,
    1971), we grant the stay pending review, waiving
    appeal bond pursuant
    to
    statute since a government body is involved.
    We
    also stay the provision making the variance conditional on the
    payment of penalties,
    also pending review,
    in order that the condition
    will
    not interfere with the right of judicial review.
    I,
    Christan Moffett, Clerk
    of the Pollution Control Board, certify
    that the Board adopted the above Opinion
    &
    Order on Motion for
    Clarification
    &
    Stay this
    25
    day of July,
