Ninety-Day Extension)
ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
On May 2, 1996 the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) and Graham
Oldsmobile (Graham) filed a joint notice of extension of the 35-day appeal period pursuant to
Section 40 of the Environmental Protection Act, relating to an March 22, 1996 Agency final
reimbursement determination. The Agency requested the extension “to June 20, 1996, 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(c), which
governs the underground storage tank 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 the
initial appeal period.
As the Board maintains its files by docket number only, the Board will reserve docket
PCB 96-228 for any appeal which may be filed by Graham; Graham is directed to use this
docket number in any future filing concerning this appeal. In the event that Graham fails to
file an appeal on or before June 20, 1996 (the 90th day after March 22, 1996), the Board will
dismiss the docket as unnecessary. A $75.00 filing fee will, of course, be required at such
time as Graham files such petition.
