10A NCAC 14C .0205      Extension of REVIEW PERIOD

(a)  If the review is not expedited, the review may be extended for the following reasons:

(1)           the total number of applications, including those in other review periods, prevents the CON Section from completing the review in 90 days;

(2)           the applicant has not submitted a response to a request from the CON Section for clarifying information; or

(3)           the CON Section received clarifying information from the applicant but is not able to complete the review in 90 days.

(b)  The CON Section shall notify the contact individual identified in Section A of the application if the review period is extended. Failure to receive such notice prior to the last day of the review period does not entitle the applicant to a certificate of need nor authorize the applicant to proceed with the proposal in the application without a certificate of need.
