    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):
     
    On February 24, 2003, the parties placed in the U.S. mail a joint request to extend the 35-
    day period within which Keller Oil may appeal a January 17, 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). Keller Oil was served the Agency’s determination on January 18,
    2003. Because the joint request’s postmark date is within the filing period following Keller Oil’s
    receipt of the Agency decision, the petition is timely filed.
    See
    35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.300(a),
    101.300(b)(2), 105.404. The Agency issued a reimbursement from the Underground Storage
    Tank Fund in the amount of $48,657.36. Keller Oil requested $47,964.30. This matter regards
    Keller Oil’s leaking underground storage tank site at 419 West Lincoln in Charleston, Coles
    County. The Board extends the appeal period until May 23, 2003, as the parties request.
    See
     
    415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2002); 35 Ill. Adm. Code 105.208(a). If Keller Oil 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
