    (Adjusted Standard - Land)
    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by G.T. Girard):
    On June 2, 1998, the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago
    (District) filed a motion for modification of the Board’s May 7, 1998 order which dismissed
    the adjusted standard petition filed by the District. On June 19, 1998, the Illinois
    Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) filed a response opposing the motion to modify.
    On June 26, 1998, the District filed a motion for leave to file a reply along with a reply. On
    July 2, 1998, the Agency filed a response to the motion for leave to file the reply asking the
    Board to deny the motion for leave to file a reply. To ensure that the arguments of the parties
    are completely heard, the Board grants the motion for leave to file the reply.
    With regards to the motion to modify, the Board’s order of May 7, 1998, clearly states
    the Board’s position regarding the existing adjusted standard and further clarification of the
    Board’s May 7, 1998 order is not necessary. Therefore, the Board denies the motion to
    modify the May 7, 1998 order.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    Board Member N.J. Melas abstains.
    I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, hereby certify that
    the above order was adopted on the 6th day of August 1998 by a vote of 6-0.
    Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
    Illinois Pollution Control Board
