    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
     
    On December 3, 2002, the parties timely filed a joint notice to extend the 35-day period
    within which Thornton Oil Corporation #17 (Thornton) may appeal an October 22, 2002
    determination of the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency).
    See
    415 ILCS
    5/40(a)(1) (2000),
    amended by
    P.A. 92-0574, eff. June 26, 2002; 35 Ill. Adm. Code 105.406.
    The Agency denied part of Thornton’s request for reimbursement from the Underground Storage
    Tank Fund regarding a leaking underground storage tank site at 1012 Ogden Avenue in Downers
    Grove, DuPage County. The Board extends the appeal period until February 24, 2003, as the
    parties request.
    See
    415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2000),
    amended by
    P.A. 92-0574, eff. June 26, 2002;
    35 Ill. Adm. Code 105.406. If Thornton fails to file an appeal on or before that date, the Board
    will dismiss this case and close the docket.
     
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
     
    I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, certify that the Board
    adopted the above order on December 19, 2002, by a vote of 6-0.
