§ 21.26 - Receipt of applications.

Applications received by the Commission are given a file number for administrative convenience, which does not indicate the acceptance of the application for filing and processing. After preliminary review those applications covered by § 21.27(a) that appear complete will be put on public notice as accepted for filing. Neither the assignment of a file number nor the listing of the application on public notice as accepted for filing indicates that the application has been found acceptable for filing or precludes the subsequent return or dismissal of the application if it is found to be defective or not in substantial compliance with the Commission's rules.
