Full text

(a) OFA will begin reviews of documented petitions in the order of their receipt. (1) At each successive review stage, there may be points at which OFA is waiting on additional information or clarification from the petitioner. Upon receipt of the additional information or clarification, OFA will return to its review of the documented petition as soon as possible. (2) To the extent possible, OFA will give highest priority to completing reviews of documented petitions it has already begun to review. (b) OFA will maintain a numbered register of documented petitions that have been received. (c) OFA will maintain a numbered register of any letters of intent, which were allowable prior to July 31, 2015, or incomplete (i.e., not fully documented) petitions and the original dates of their filing with the Department. If two or more documented petitions are ready for review on the same date, this register will determine the order of consideration.
