Once an application is considered filed, the <br />Office has 90 days to complete its adequacy review of the application and to make <br />its decision to approve or deny the application. Any application denied by the <br />Office is automatically set for a Board hearing. During the adequacy review <br />process, the Office examines each Exhibit in the application to verify that all the <br />requirements for an Exhibit, pursuant to the Act and Rules, have been adequately <br />addressed. Where inadequacies in an Exhibit exist, the Office sends an adequacy <br />letter to the Applicant requesting that the inadequacies identified by the Office be <br />addressed. <br />Where there are no objections to an application, only the Applicant may extend the <br />application review process beyond the 90a' day decision date. If an application is <br />not adequate, and the decision date is not extended by the Applicant, the Office <br />may deny the. application.

If an <br />application reaches the 365' day, and Office adequacy issues remain, the <br />application may be scheduled for a Board hearing to approve or deny the <br />application. <br />If the Office receives an objection to an application, the application is <br />automatically set for a Board hearing. Once the Office makes a finding that an <br />application is filed, the Board must make its decision to approve or deny the <br />application by the 120` day, unless the Applicant extends the decision date. <br />Again, the extension may not exceed 365 days beyond the filing date. <br />Provisions of the Act require that an application be automatically approved if <br />the office does not make a decision an the application by the 90"' day, or by <br />the Board, where a timely objection is received, by the 120' day, unless those <br />dates are extended or waived by the Applicant. <br />5 <br />
