(1) A person may not intervene in an informal adjudicative proceeding, unless allowed by the presiding officer for good cause.

(2) A person may file a petition for an order granting leave to intervene in a formal adjudicative proceeding as provided in Section 63G-4-207 and in accordance with the following:

(a) Any petition to intervene or materials filed after the date a response is due may be considered at the next regularly scheduled meeting only upon separate motion of the intervenor made at or before the hearing for good cause shown.

(b) Any party to a formal adjudicative proceeding in which intervention is sought may make an oral or written response to the petition for intervention. The response shall:
(i) state the basis for opposition to intervention and may suggest limitations to be placed upon the participation of the intervenor if intervention is granted; and

(ii) be presented or filed at or before the hearing.

(3) The presiding officer will consider the petition for an order granting leave to intervene and any response in determining whether to allow a party to intervene.

(4) If it appears during the course of the proceeding that an intervenor has no direct or substantial interest in the proceeding and that the public interest does not require the intervenor's participation in the hearing, the presiding officer may dismiss the intervenor from the proceeding.

(5) Where two or more intervenors have substantially the same interests and positions in the proceeding the presiding officer may at any time during the proceeding limit the number of intervenors who will be permitted to testify, cross-examine witnesses, or make and argue motions and objections.
