What happens if the Director of NIOSH determines that an SEC petition does not meet the minimum requirements for review and evaluation?
If the SEC petition does not meet the minimum requirements for review and evaluation, NIOSH will notify petitioners of any requirements that the petition failed to meet and provide guidance to the petitioners in developing the relevant information. Petitioners have 30 calendar days from the date of notification to revise the petition. If, after 30 days, the petition remains unqualified, NIOSH will issue a decision that the petition does not qualify for evaluation. Petitioners then have 30 calendar days to request a review of that decision. If a review has been requested, NIOSH will make the final decision as to whether to accept or deny the petition based on results of the review. If at the end of the 30 calendar days the petition does not meet the minimum requirements or is not reviewed, NIOSH’s proposed finding will become a final decision.
