3. Accident or surprise which could not have been prevented by ordinary prudence.
4. Material evidence, newly discovered, which with reasonable diligence could not have been discovered and produced at the hearing.
5. Error in admission or rejection of evidence, or other errors of law occurring at the hearing or during the progress of the action.

The decision becomes final 30 days after the Appellant is notified of the Board's action on the motion for rehearing or review.
C. The aggrieved party shall ensure that the motion for a rehearing or review is in writing and specifies the grounds upon which the motion is based. The aggrieved party may amend the motion at any time before the Board rules on it.
D. If the Board desires a response to the motion for rehearing or review from the opposing party, the Board shall notify the opposing party in writing and allow a reasonable period of time for preparation and filing of the response.
