PETITIONER’S MOTION TO THE

ILLINOIS POLLUTION CONTROL

BOARD

FOR VOLUNTARY DISMISSAL OF NPDES PERMIT APPEAL

Now

comes

the

Petitioner,

Metropolitan

Water

Reclamation

District

of

Greater

Chicago

(“District”), by

its

Attorney,

Michael

G.

Rosenberg,

and

requests

that

the Illinois

Pollution Control Board dismiss

the District’s Petition for NPDES Permit Appeal.

In support

hereof, the District states as follows:

1.

On January 29, 2002,

the District filed a Petition for NPDES

Permit Appeal with the

Illinois Pollution

Control Board

(“IPCB”).

The appeal pertained to NPDES

Permit Number

IL0036340

issued

to

the

District

for

its

Egan

Water

Reclamation

Plant

by

the

Illinois

Environmental

Protection

Agency

(“IEPA”).

The

appeal

challenged

certain

terms

and

conditions in the permit.

2.

On February 7, 2002,

the IPCB accepted the District’s petition for hearing.

The

IPCB

subsequently assigned Hearing Officer Bradley P. Halloran to this appeal.

3.

On

September

13,

2004,

the

IEPA issued

the Egan

WRP

a

modified

permit.

The

permit

was

further modified

on

October

14,

2004.

The

modifications

have

satisfactorily

---

resolved one

or more

of the

issues under

appeal.

Therefore,

the

District

requests

that

the

instant appeal be dismissed.

WHEREFORE,

the

Metropolitan

Water

Reclamation

District

of Greater

Chicago

requests that the instant NPDES permit appeal be voluntarily dismissed.
