Appellate Court of Illinois March 9, 1978, 77-62 (Ashland Chemical Co. v. Pollution Control Board)

Mr. PRESIDING JUSTICE STENGEL

delivered the opinion of the court:

This appeal is from the Pollution Control Board’s denial of an operating permit to Ashland Chemical Company for the boilerhouse at its Mapleton, Illinois, plant.

The Ashland plant at Mapleton near Peoria, Illinois, produces chemicals from beef taiow and other material and uses three boilers, two of which are coal-fired.
