Sec. 16.9  How the Board will promote development of the record.

    The Board may, at the time it acknowledges an appeal or at any 
appropriate later point, request additional documents or information; 
request briefing on issues in the case; issue orders to show cause why a 
proposed finding or decision of the Board should not become final; hold 
preliminary conferences (generally by telephone) to establish schedules 
and refine issues; and take such other steps as the Board determines 
appropriate to develop a prompt, sound decision.
