    In computing any period of time prescribed by or allowed by the 
regulations contained in part 458 of this subchapter, the day of the 
act, event, or default after which the designated period of time begins 
to run, shall not be included. The last day of the period so computed is 
to be included unless it is a Saturday, Sunday or Federal legal holiday 
in which event the period shall run until the end of the next day which 
is neither a Saturday, Sunday, or a Federal legal holiday. When the 
period of time prescribed or allowed is seven (7) days or less, 
intermediate Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal legal holidays shall be 
excluded from the computations. When these regulations require the 
filing of any paper, such document must be received by the Assistant 
Secretary or the officer or agent designated to receive such matter 
before the close of business of the last day of the time limit, if any, 
for such filing or extension of time that may have been granted.
