(b) Requests for extension shall be filed on or before the required due date of the report by using the extension request screen available through the CORC system to indicate the number of days requested or by submitting the Extension Request Form (OSH-CCORP 418 (Revised 06/17)) and hereby incorporated by reference.

(c) If a hospital files a report before an extended due date, the days not used will be applied to the number of available extension days for the report.

(d) The Office shall respond within 5 days of receipt of the extension request by either granting a hospital what is determined to be a reasonable extension or disapproving the request. Hospitals which are granted an extension shall be notified by the Office of the new due date for the report.
