explains that certain untimely filed or unsolicited material will be 
returned to the submitter together with an explanation of the reasons

    (b) Extension of time limits. Unless expressly precluded by statute, 
the Secretary may, for good cause, extend any time limit established by 
this part.

request must be in writing and state the reasons for the request. An 
extension granted to a party must be approved in writing.
