ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
On August 7, 1998, the Illinois Attorney General, on behalf of the people of the State
of Illinois and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, and United Distillers
Manufacturing, Inc., a Delaware corporation, filed a stipulation and proposal for settlement.
The motion was accompanied by a request for relief from the hearing requirement of Section
31(a)(2) of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/31(a)(2) (1996)). The Board
directs the Clerk of the Board to cause publication of the required newspaper notice for the
stipulation and proposal for settlement and request for relief from hearing concerning the
complaint filed by complainant.
Pursuant to Section 31(a)(2) of the Act, the parties may file with the Board a stipulation
and proposal for settlement accompanied by a request for relief from the hearing requirement.
Unless the Board determines that a hearing is needed, the Board is required to cause notice of
the stipulation and proposal for settlement and request for relief. Any person may file a
written demand for hearing within 21 days after receiving the notice. If a hearing is requested,
the Board will accordingly deny the parties’ request for relief and schedule a hearing.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Board Member Kathleen M. Hennessey abstained.
I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, hereby certify that
the above order was adopted on the 20th day of August 1998 by a vote of 6-0.
Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
