EPIt,

(August

,

in

which

on the basis

of facts similar to

those here alleged the recuest was denied.

Even

if all

the fact.

here alleged are

true,

therefore,

the petitioner

is

not entitled

to

a variance,

and

a hearing would serve

no purpose.

The questi

whether some connections should be oermitted

now because of

improver~entsallegedly made by

the Sanitary District

is

to be

explored in the pending variance case filed by

the District,
