    (UST Appeal)
    (90-Day Extension)
     
    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):
     
    On February 18, 2003, the parties placed into the U.S. mail a joint request to extend the
    35-day period within which Mick’s Garage may appeal a January 10, 2003 determination of the
    Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency).
    See
    415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2002); 35 Ill.
    Adm. Code 105.206(c), 105.208(a), (c). Mick’s Garage was served with the Agency’s
    determination on January 11, 2003. The Board received the joint request on February 21, 2003.
    The 35-day filing deadline in this case extended to February 18, 2003.
    See
    35 Ill. Adm. Code
    101.300(a). Because the joint request was postmarked February 18, 2003, the joint request was
    timely filed.
    See
    35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.300(b)(2). In this case, the Agency accepted a site
    characterization report/corrective action plan, but applied a $50,000 deductible toward
    reimbursement from the leaking underground storage tank fund regarding Mick’s Garage’s
    underground storage tank site at 1251 East Chain of Rocks Road in Pontoon Beach, Madison
    County. The Board extends the appeal period until May 16, 2003, as the parties request.
    See
     
    415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2002); 35 Ill. Adm. Code 105.208(a). If Mick’s Garage 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 March 6, 2003, by a vote of 6-0.
     
    Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
    Illinois Pollution Control Board
