    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):
     
    On April 18, 2003, the parties timely filed a joint notice to extend the 35-day period
    within which Owens Oil Company may appeal a March 7, 2003 determination of the Illinois
    Environmental Protection Agency (Agency).
    See
    415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2002); 35 Ill. Adm. Code
    105.402, 105.406. Because the postmark date of the joint request is within the time for filing, the
    joint request was timely filed. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.300(b)(2), 105.404. The Agency approved
    the payment of corrective action costs, with modifications, for Owens Oil Company’s leaking
    underground petroleum storage tank facility located at 401 North Main, Greenfield, Greene
    County. The Board extends the appeal period until July 11, 2003, as the parties request.
    See
    415
    ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2002); 35 Ill. Adm. Code 105.406. If Owens Oil Company 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 May 1, 2003, by a vote of 7-0.
