§ 209.3. Approval of applications.

(a)  A request for route approval under this chapter will be either approved as submitted, approved with additional listed restrictions upon operation, or disapproved in writing within 30 days of receipt of the request by the Department of Transportation, or the relevant city or municipal highway department. In the event the requested route requires the approval of the Department and one or more municipalities, the 30-day period for review by a municipality shall commence upon receipt of the request by the municipality.

In no event will this process take longer than 90 days without the consent of the applicant.
(b)  The period of time provided for review of applications may be extended by written notice to the applicant for a period of time agreed upon by the applicant and the Department or the relevant city or municipal highway department, or for 15 days without agreement of the applicant for good cause stated in the notice to the applicant.
(c)  An application not approved or disapproved within the time periods stated in this section will be deemed approved by the Department or the relevant city or municipal highway department.
(d)  Disapprovals or restricted approvals of applications shall be in writing and explain the reasons for the disapproval or restricted approval of the application.
