(b)Rule on motions for extensions of time;
(c)Reject motions, briefs, pleadings, and other documents filed with the Commission later than the time prescribed by the Secretary or the Assistant Secretary or established by an order, rule, or regulation of the Commission unless good cause is shown for the late filing; and
(d)Prescribe all procedural arrangements relating to any oral argument to be held before the Commission. [39 FR 24219, July 1, 1974, as amended at 72 FR 49152, Aug. 28, 2007]
