    (Administrative Citation)
    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
    This matter comes before the Board upon the November 12, 1997, filing of an
    administrative citation pursuant to Section 31.1 of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415
    ILCS 5/31.1 (1996)) by the County of Montgomery (county). A copy of that administrative
    citation is attached hereto. Service of the administrative citation was made upon Envotech
    Illinois, Inc. (respondent) on November 10, 1997. The county alleges that on September 17,
    1997, respondent, present owner and/or operator of a facility located in Montgomery County
    and commonly known to the county as Litchfield-Hillsboro Landfill/Envotech Illinois Landfill,
    violated Section 21(o)(5) of the Act. The statutory penalty established for each violation is
    $500 pursuant to Section 42(b)(4) of the Act.
    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. Therefore, the Board
    finds respondent has violated the provision alleged in the administrative citation. Since there is
    one (1) such violation, the total penalty to be imposed is set at $500.
    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 Montgomery Treasurer, pay a penalty in the
    amount of $500, which is to be sent to:
    Montgomery County Health Department
    Attn: Amy Stewart, Director
    South Route 185
    Hillsboro, Illinois 62049
    2. Respondent shall include the remittance form and write the case name and
    number and its social security or federal employer identification number on the
    certified check or money order.
    3.
    Penalties unpaid after the due date shall accrue interest pursuant to Section 42(g)
    of the Act. 415 ILCS 5/42(g) (1996).
    2
    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 5th day of February 1998, by a vote of 6-0.
    Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
    Illinois Pollution Control Board
