    (2) The disposition of the rejected articles or portions thereof;

    (4) A time limit, reasonable in the light of the circumstances, for 

completion of the operations; and

    (5) Such other conditions as are necessary to maintain adequate 

supervision and control over the article.

    (b) Upon receipt of a written request for extension of time to

district director may grant such additional time as he deems necessary.

    (c) An authorization may be amended upon a showing of reasonable 

grounds therefor and the filing of an amended application for

owner has executed a bond and obtained a new authorization. Any 

authorization granted under this section shall supersede and nullify any 

previously granted authorization with respect to the article.
