    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (J. Theodore Meyer):
    This matter is before the Board on a December
    6,
    1995
    petition for appeal filed by Raleigh Realty Corporation
    (Raleigh).
    Raleigh purports to challenge an August
    4,
    1995 final
    determination letter from the Illinois Environmental Protection
    Agency (Agency).
    As indicated in the Agency’s letter, pursuant to Sections
    57.8(i) and 40 of the Illinois Environmental Protection Act
    (Act),
    an underground storage tank owner or operator has 35 days
    to appeal an Agency final determination.
    Accordingly, Raleigh’s
    appeal was to be filed on or before September 8,
    1995 unless it
    filed a request for a 90-day extension in which to file its
    appeal,
    as allowed by Section 40(a) (1)
    of the Act.
    Since the Board received neither an appeal nor a request for
    a 90—day extension in which to file an appeal, we dismiss
    Raleigh’s petition as untimely filed and close the docket
    in this
    matter.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    Section 41 of the Environmental Protection Act
    (415 ILCS
    5/41
    (1992)) provides for the appeal of final Board orders within
    35 days of the date of service of this order.
    The Rule of the
    Supreme Court of Illinois establish filing requirements.
    (See
    also
    35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.246, Motions for Reconsideration.)
