    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):
     
    On April 25, 2003, the parties timely filed a joint notice to extend the 35-day period
    within which Owens Oil Company may appeal a March 18, 2003 determination of the Illinois
    Environmental Protection Agency (Agency).
    See
    415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2002); 35 Ill. Adm. Code
    105.402, 105.406. Because the postmark date of the joint request is within the time for filing, the
    joint request was timely filed. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.300(b)(2), 105.404. At issue is the
    Agency’s approval of the reimbursement of corrective action costs, with deductions, for Owens
    Oil Company’s leaking underground petroleum storage tank facility located at 401 North Main
    Street, Greenfield, Greene County. The Board extends the appeal period until July 22, 2003, as
    the parties request.
    See
    415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2002); 35 Ill. Adm. Code 105.406. If Owens Oil
    Company 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 May 1, 2003, by a vote of 7-0.
