    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by R.C. Flemal):
    This matter is before the Board upon complainant’s motion to reconsider the
    Board’s order of November 20, 1997. In that order the Board denied complainant’s motion
    for partial summary judgment. Respondent has not responded to the motion.
    In ruling upon a motion for reconsideration, the Board is to consider factors including,
    but not limited to, error in the previous decision and facts in the record which are overlooked.
    35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.246(d). In
     
    Citizens Against Regional Landfill v. County Board of
    Whiteside County (March 11, 1993), PCB 93-156, the Board stated that “[t]he intended
    purpose of a motion for reconsideration is to bring to the court’s attention newly-discovered
    evidence which was not available at the time of the hearing, changes in the law, or errors in
    the court’s previous application of the existing law.” Korogluyan v. Chicago Title & Trust
    Co., 213 Ill. App.3d 622, 572 N.E.2d 1154 (1st Dist. 1992).
    The motion to reconsider is denied. The Board finds nothing in the motion to
    reconsider that persuades the Board that its decision of November 20, 1997, was in error, or
    that facts were overlooked. Therefore, this case shall proceed as ordered on November 20,
    1997.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    Board Chairman C.A. Manning abstained.

    I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, hereby certify that
    the above order was adopted on the 22nd day of January 1998, by a vote of 6-0.
    Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
    Illinois Pollution Control Board
