RESPONSE

TO MOTION FOR

EXTENSION

OF TIME

NOW COMES the Petitioner, Village of Robbins, “Robbins”) by and

through its attorney, William H. Mansker and responds to the Motion For

Extension of Time to File Response as follows:

1. The Petitioner Village of Robbins appreciates the time demands and

time constraints of IEPA counsel and does not object to an extension of time

for 14 days to file a response to the motion for summary judgment.

2. The Village, like many agencies of local government, is facing

extraordinary fiscal and financial issues related to business activities in their

community. The facility seeking the permit modification is the principal

industrial operation in the Village.

---

3. As the local siting authority, the Village desires •to expedite the

resolution of the permit issue as the project that is subject of the permit

cannot operate and provide needed revenues to the Village unless the permit

issue is resolved.

4. The Village remains ready, willing and able to discuss any

outstanding issues related to the permit and looks forward to the speedy

resolution of this matter.

WHEREFORE, the Petitioner Village of Robbins does not object to the

extension of time to file a response to the motion for summary judgment

until May 28, 2004 but is concerned with the timely resolution of the

motion.

Respectfully Submitted,
