HEARING
OFFICER ORDER
On May 26, 2005, Unites Science Industries
~USI~requested additional time to
file
prefiled testimony.
The current date set by hearing officer order forprefihing testimony is July
1,
2005.
USI asked that the deadline to prefile testimony be moved to July
15,
2005, because ofthe
additional time granted the Agency to file answers to the prefiled questions.
The Agency must
prefile answers by June
15,
2005.
July
15,
2005,
is
only 12 days before the scheduled hearing in this proceeding and I am
not convinced that
12 days is sufficient time to review the prefiled testimony before the hearing.
Therefore, I will grant the request but only to July
8, 2005.
This is an additional seven days from
the prior deadline of July
1, 2005.
Therefore, prefiled testimony must be filed with the Board
and served on the persons on the service list by July
8, 2005.
The mailbox rule does not apply.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
