    (UST Appeal)
    (90-Day Extension)
     
    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):
     
    On March 20, 2003, the parties timely filed a joint notice to extend the 35-day period
    within which Swearingin Amoco may appeal a February 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). Because the postmark date of the joint petition is within the time for
    filing, the petition was timely filed. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.300(b)(2), 105.404. At issue is the
    Agency’s partial denial of reimbursement of corrective action costs regarding Swearingin
    Amoco’s leaking underground petroleum storage tank facility located at 503 South State Street,
    Jerseyville, Jersey County, Illinois. The Board extends the appeal period until June 16, 2003, the
    first business day following the date requested by the parties.
    See
    415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2002);
    35 Ill. Adm. Code 105.208(a). If Swearingin Amoco 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 April 3, 2003, by a vote of 7-0.
