§ 179.72. Rehearing or reconsideration.
(a) A party to a proceeding may file an application for rehearing or reconsideration by filing a petition within 15 days after the final order of the Commission.
(b) Filing a petition for rehearing or reconsideration does not toll or stay the 30-day appeal period.
(c) The petition must state concisely the alleged errors in the adjudication or other order of the Commission. If a final order or other order of the Commission is sought to be vacated, reversed or modified by reason of matters that have arisen since the hearing and decision or order, or by reason of a consequence that would result from compliance therewith, the matters relied upon by the petitioner must be set forth in the petition.
(d) Answers to petitions for rehearing or reconsideration will not be entertained by the Commission. If the Commission grants the rehearing or reconsideration, an answer may be filed by a participant within 15 days after the issuance of the order granting rehearing or reconsideration. The response will be confined to the issues upon which rehearing or reconsideration has been granted.
(e) If the Commission does not act upon the petition for rehearing or reconsideration within 30 days after it is filed, the petition will be deemed to have been denied.
(f) Subsections (a)—(e) supersede 1 Pa. Code § 35.241 (relating to application for rehearing or reconsideration).
