NAC706.894. Intervention.

     1. Persons, other than the original parties to the proceeding, who are directly and substantially affected by the proceeding, shall serve notice on the Authority or Administrator, of their intention to intervene by submitting a clear and concise statement, in writing, of the interest of the applicant in such proceeding, outlining the matters and things relied upon by the applicant as basis for his or her request, together with a statement as to the nature of evidence the applicant will present and the position the applicant will take.

     2. Notice to intervene must be filed with the Authority or Administrator 15 days before the commencement of hearing. If filed thereafter, the petition must state a substantial reason for the delay; otherwise the petition will not be considered.

     3. If a notice of intervention shows direct and substantial interest in the subject matter of the proceeding or any part thereof and does not unduly broaden the issues, the Authority, presiding officer or Administrator may grant leave to intervene or otherwise appear in the proceeding with respect to the matters set out in the intervening notice. If it appears during the course of a proceeding that an intervener has no direct or substantial interest or the public interest does not require his or her participation therein, the Authority, presiding officer or Administrator may dismiss the intervener from the proceeding.
