(UST Appeal
90-Day Extension)
ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
On May 19 , 1997 Sky-View Wholesale Nursery Company (petitioner) filed a request
for extension of the 35-day appeal period pursuant to Section 40 of the Environmental
Protection Act (415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1)(Supp.1997)), relating to an April 23, 1997 Illinois
Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) determination. On May 27, 1997, the Agency
filed its concurrence and a joint notice. The Agency requested the extension "to July 22,
1997, or any other date not more than a total of 90 days from the date of the Agency's final
determination."
Section 40(a)(1), which governs the appeal process, provides:
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. (415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1)(Supp.1997).)
As the Board maintains its files by docket number only, the Board will reserve docket
PCB 97-206 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 July 22, 1997 (the 90th day after April 23, 1997), the Board will
dismiss the docket. A $75 filing fee will be required if petitioner files such petition.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
