INC. The order held that Respondent M.K. O'HARA CONSTRUCTION, INC . had committed the
violations alleged in the Administrative Citation : Sections 21(p)(1), 21(p)(4), and 21(p)(7) of the
Environmental Protection Act ("Act"), 415 ILCS 5/21(p)(1), (4), and (7) . However, the Board
withheld final order as to Respondent M .K. O'HARA CONSTRUCTION, INC . "until the Board
makes a final decision concerning LSG ."
(5) Based on newly-discovered circumstances surrounding this case, Illinois EPA
believes that it is now appropriate to dismiss this Administrative Citation against Respondent
LOGSDON SAND AND GRAVEL
.
(6) If the Board were to grant this motion to dismiss Respondent LOGSDON SAND
AND GRAVEL, Respondent M.K. O'HARA CONSTRUCTION, INC. would be the only remaining
Respondent and no impediment to immediate final order would exist
.
WHEREFORE, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency requests that the Board dismiss
the pending action against Respondent LOGSDON SAND AND GRAVEL and enter a final order
against M.K. O'HARA CONSTRUCTION, INC. pursuant to Section 31 .1(d)(1) of the Act.
