COMPLAINANT’S MOTION TO WITHDRAW ADMINISTRATIVE CITATION
AS TO RESPONDENT GEORGIA SHANK
NOW COMES the Complainant, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“Illinois
EPA”), by and through its attorney, Special Assistant Attorney General Michelle M. Ryan, pursuant
to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.500, and respectfully states as follows:
(1)
On January 4, 2006 , Illinois EPA issued an Administrative Citation to Respondents,
based on an inspection conducted on November 15, 2005.
(2)
On February 9, 2006, Respondent Georgia Shank filed a timely petition for review
contesting this Administrative Citation.
(3)
Respondent Steve Shank has not filed a timely petition for review and is in default.
Illinois EPA v. Shank
, PCB No. AC 06-20 (April 6, 2006) p. 2.
(4)
On July 18, 2006, Respondents e-mailed the hearing officer to announce they were
hiring attorney Kevin Sybart to represent them in this matter. However, Mr. Sybart has not filed an
appearance, and phone calls by the undersigned to him have gone unreturned.
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, AUGUST 17, 2006
 
(5)
Respondents have indicated during a status call that they remain a legally married
couple.
(6)
Because Illinois EPA is not seeking an additional penalty against Georgia Shank, and
because her husband, Steve Shank, is already in default, Illinois EPA has determined that it is
prudent to withdraw this Administrative Citation as to Respondent Georgia Shank at this time.
WHEREFORE, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency requests that the Board
dismiss the pending action against Respondent Georgia Shank and issue a final order as to
Respondent Steve Shank.

PROTECTION AGENCY,
