ORDER OF THE BOARD (3. C. Marlin):

This matter comes before the Board upon receipt of an Agency

Recommendation dated October 23, 1990. The recommendation refers

to a request from Petitioner, Metal Finishing Research Corp., for

a 30 day provisional variance from the 90—day on—site limitations

for hazardous wastes set forth in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 722.134(b).

Upon receipt of the request the Agency issued its

recommendation, finding that the hazardous wastes must remain on—

site for longer than 90 days due to unforeseen, temporary and

uncontrollable circumstances and failure to grant the requested

30—day provisional variance would impose an arbitrary or

unreasonable hardship on Petitioner.

The Board hereby grants Petitioner a provisional variance

from 35 Ill. Adm. Code 722.134(b) from October 30, 1990 to

November 29, 1990.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
