(a) Extensions of time will be governed by the following:

(1) When an act is otherwise required to be done at a specified time or within a specified time, the date or period of time prescribed may be extended by the Commission, for good cause, upon a motion made before expiration of the period originally prescribed. An extension for time to comply with the specified time period after the expiration date shall be at the sole discretion of the Commission.

(2) Written requests for an extension of time in which to file motions, briefs or other pleadings within a proceeding shall be filed at least 5 days before the time fixed for filing the documents unless the Commission or presiding officer, for good cause shown allows a shorter time. Concurrence or denial of extension of time shall be reported to the presiding officer in the request.

(3) Requests for a continuance of a hearing shall be made in writing at least 96 hours prior to the time fixed for hearing to the presiding officer, specifically setting forth the facts upon which the request for continuance rests. An application received by the presiding office within the 96-hour period will not be granted, except upon extreme cause. A verification of the facts shall accompany the written request for continuance. No more than two continuances may be approved to any party.

(b) Subsection (a) supersedes 1 Pa. Code §31.15 (relating to extensions of time).
