52 Pa. Code § 5.201 - Notice of proceeding; hearing; waiver of hearing
(a) When notice and hearing are required
under the act, publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin of a
notice of application or other initial pleading is sufficient to provide notice
of the proceeding. Service on interested persons is also sufficient to provide
notice. The notice must fix a reasonable period of time, but not less than 15
days, within which a person desiring to be heard may file a petition to
intervene, a protest, complaint or other appropriate pleading. Hearings will be
held upon the filing of the pleading, unless waived by the parties.
(b) If the appropriate pleading is not filed
within the set period of time, or when the parties have waived hearings, the
Commission may dispose of the matter without a hearing upon the basis of the
pleadings or submittals and the studies and recommendations of the
staff.
(c) Subsections (a) and (b)
supersede 1 Pa. Code §
§35.101, 35.103 and 35.121 (relating to waiver of
hearing; preliminary notice to Department of Justice; and initiation of
hearings).
