(b) (1) Each petition must refer to the rule authorizing the action sought and contain information or arguments that justify the action. Unless otherwise specified, no public proceeding is held on a petition before it is granted or denied. After a petition is received, the Administrator or participating state agency notifies the petitioner of the disposition of the petition or, if the request requires more extensive consideration or additional information or comments are requested and delay is expected, of the date by which action will be taken. (2) For operators seeking a finding or approval involving intrastate pipeline transportation, petitions must be sent to: Pipeline Safety Office, Arkansas Public Service Commission, P.O. Box 400, Little Rock, Arkansas 72203-0400. (3) For operators seeking a finding or approval involving interstate pipeline transportation, petitions must be sent to the Administrator, Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE, Washington, DC 20590. (c) All petitions must be received at least 90 days prior to the date by which the operator requests the finding or approval to be made.
