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.
