ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):
On March 24, 2003, Franklin T. Fowler and Franklin D. Fowler (Fowlers) filed a

that Remington has created noise and air pollution through the operation of a scale facility at a
hybrid seed processing plant located at 600 East Exchange Street, Geneseo, Henry County. On
April 9, 2003, Remington filed an answer to the formal complaint, a motion to dismiss, an
appearance, and an application for admission p
ro hac vice
. On April 25, 2003, the Fowlers filed
a motion for dismissal without prejudice. To date, Remington has not filed a response to the
Fowlers’ motion.
Pursuant to Section 101.500(d) of the Board’s procedural rules, if no response is filed to a
motion within 14 days after service, the party will be deemed to have waived objection.
See

Remington’s motion to dismiss and motion for admission p

are moot, and will not be
addressed.
The Fowlers’ motion to voluntarily dismiss this matter without prejudice is granted, and
the docket is closed.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, certify that the Board
