(90-Day Extension)
ORDER OF THE BOARD (by G.T. Girard):
On March 19, 2007, the Board received a joint notice to extend the 35-day period within
which the Estate of Fred Johnson (Johnson) may appeal a February 8, 2007 determination of the
Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency). According to the joint notice, Johnson
received the Agency determination on February 9, 2007. The joint request was therefore timely
filed because it was postmarked on March 15, 2007, the day before the filing deadline.
See
415
ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2004); 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.300(b)(2), 105.406. The Agency’s determination
concerns Johnson’s leaking underground storage tank site located at 9th Street and Fair Avenue
in Pana, Christian County. In the determination, the Agency modified Johnson’s Amended High
Priority Corrective Action Plan and Budget.
The Board extends the appeal period until June 14, 2007, as the parties request.
See
415
ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (2004); 35 Ill. Adm. Code 105.406. If Johnson 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 19, 2007, by a vote of 3-0.
Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
Illinois Pollution Control Board
