(UST - Appeal
Ninety-Day Extension)
ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
On December 18, 1996 the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) and
Covelli’s A-1 Service 76 (petitioner) filed a joint notice of extension of the 35-day appeal
period pursuant to Section 40 of the Environmental Protection Act, relating to the November
7, 1996 Agency determination. The Agency requested the extension "to February 4, 1997, or
any other date not more than a total of 90 days from the date of the Agency's final
determination.”
P.A. 88-690 (SB1724) effective January 24, 1995 amends Section 40(a), which
governs the permit appeal process, to provide:
the 35-day period for petitioning 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 97-109 for any appeal which may be filed by petitioner; petitioner is directed to use this
docket number in any future filing concerning this appeal. In the event that petitioner fails to
file an appeal on or before February 4, 1997 (the 90th day after November 7, 1996), the Board
will dismiss the docket as unnecessary. A $75 filing fee will, of course, be required at such
time as petitioner files such petition.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
