    AC 98-10
    (County No. 97-05)
    (Administrative Citation)
    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
    This matter comes before the Board upon the August 15, 1997 filing of an
    administrative citation pursuant to Section 31.1 of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) by
    the County of Vermilion (County). A copy of that administrative citation is attached hereto.
    Service of the administrative citation was made upon Darrell Grant (respondent) on August 13,
    1997. The County alleges that on July 2, 1997, respondent, present owner and/or operator of
    a facility located in Vermilion County and commonly known to the County as the
    Grant/Georgetown property, violated Sections 21(p)(1) and (p)(3) of the Act (415 ILCS
    5/21(p)(1), (p)(3) (1996)). The statutory penalty established for each violation is $500
    pursuant to Section 42(b)(4) of the Act (415 ILCS 5/42(b)(4) (1996)).
    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 (415 ILCS 5/31.1(d)(1)
    (1996)). Therefore, the Board finds respondent has violated the provisions alleged in the
    administrative citation. Since there are two (2) such violations, the total penalty to be imposed
    is set at $1,000.
    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 County of Vermilion, pay a penalty in the amount of
    $1,000 which is to be sent to:
    Vermilion County Health Department
    200 South College Street
    Danville, Illinois 61832
    2. Respondent shall include the remittance form and write the case name and
    number and his social security number 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. 415 ILCS 5/42(g) (1996).
    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 (1996)) provides for
    the appeal of final Board orders to the Illinois Appellate Court within 35 days of service of this
    order. Illinois Supreme Court Rule 335 establishes such filing requirements. See 145 Ill. 2d
    R. 335; 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 2nd day of October 1997, by a vote of 7-0.
    Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
    Illinois Pollution Control Board
