Sec. 78.22  Objections to applications.

    (a) Any party in interest may file a petition to deny any 
application (whether as originally filed or as amended) no later than 
thirty (30) days after issuance of a public notice of the acceptance for 
filing of any such application or amendment thereto. Petitions to deny 
shall contain specific allegations of fact sufficient to show that the 
petitioner is a party in interest and that a grant of the application 
would be prima facie inconsistent with the public interest, convenience, 
and necessity. Such allegations of fact shall, except for those of which 
official notice may be taken, be supported by affidavit of a person or 
persons with personal knowledge thereof.
    (b) The applicant may file an opposition to any petition to deny, 
and the petitioner may file a reply to such opposition (see Sec. 1.45 of 
this chapter), in which allegations of fact or denials thereof shall be 
supported by affidavit of a person or persons with personal knowledge 
thereof.
    (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a) of this section, 
before Commission action on any application for an instrument of 
authorization, any person may file informal objections to the grant. 
Such objections may be submitted in letter form (without extra copies) 
and shall be signed by the objector. The limitation on pleadings and 
time for filing pleadings provided for in Sec. 1.45 of this chapter 
shall not be applicable to any objections duly filed pursuant to this 
paragraph.
