The Agency requested the extension

for a hearing may be extended for a period of
time not to
exceed
90 days by
written notice provided to the Board from the
applicant and
the Agency
within the initial
appeal period.
As the Board maintains its files by
docket number only,
the Board
will reserve Docket
PCB 96-217
for any appeal which may be filed by Jewel.
In the event that Jewel
fails to file
an appeal
on or before June 6,
1996

the Board
will
dismiss the docket as unnecessary.
