Sec. 1240.108  Reconsideration.



    (a) In those cases where the Board does not recommend an award, the 

applicant may, within such period as the Board may set but in no event 

less than 30 days from notification, request reconsideration of the 

Board's decision.

    (b) If reconsideration has been requested within the prescribed 

time, the applicant will, within 30 days from the date of the request 

for reconsideration, or within any other time as the Board may set, file 

its statement setting forth the issues, points, authorities, arguments, 

and any additional material on which it relies.

    (c) Upon filing of the reconsideration statement by the applicant, 

the case will be assigned for reconsideration by the Board upon the 

contents of the application, the record, and the reconsideration 

statement submitted by the applicant.

    (d) If after reconsideration, the Board again does not propose to 

recommend the granting of an award, the applicant, after such 

notification by the Board, may request an oral hearing within the time 

set by the Board.
