1. A petition for reconsideration must specifically:

(a) Identify each portion of the challenged decision which the petitioner deems to be unlawful, unreasonable, or based on erroneous conclusions of law or mistaken facts; and

(b) Cite those portions of the record, the law or the rules of the Commission which support the allegations in the petition. The petition may not contain additional evidentiary matter or require the submission or taking of evidence.

2. A petition for rehearing must:

(a) Allege that a decision is in error because of an incomplete or inaccurate record;

(b) Specifically set forth the nature and purpose of any additional evidence to be introduced; and

(c) Show that such evidence is not merely cumulative and could not have been introduced at the hearing.

3. A petition for reconsideration or rehearing of a decision must be served upon all parties of record within 15 days after the effective date of the decision.

4. An answer to a petition for reconsideration or rehearing may be filed with the Commission by any party of record in the proceeding within 5 days after the filing of the petition. The answer must be confined to the issues contained in the petition and served upon all parties of record. Proof of service must be attached to the answer.

5. The Commission will grant or deny a petition for reconsideration or rehearing within 10 days after the date of the filing of the petition. The denial of a petition may be on the record without a separate decision.

6. Unless otherwise ordered by the Commission, the filing of a petition for reconsideration or rehearing or the granting of such a petition does not excuse compliance with, or suspend the effectiveness of, the challenged decision.

7. If the Commission grants a petition for reconsideration, it will reexamine the record and decision with regard to the issues on which reconsideration was granted and issue a modified final decision or affirm its original decision within 20 days after the petition is granted.

8. If the Commission grants a petition for rehearing, it will, within 20 days thereafter, conduct a hearing to allow the parties to present additional evidence and will issue a modified final decision or affirm its original decision.

9. A modified final decision of the Commission issued upon reconsideration or rehearing will incorporate those portions of the original decision which are not changed by the modified final decision.

10. A modified final decision of the Commission or the affirmation of an original decision of the Commission is a final decision for the purposes of judicial review.
