Authorization must be signed and dated by the individual employee. No authorizations will be accepted which bear a date more than six months before the date of the petition.

(2) And the district assumed such collective bargaining agreement pursuant to the provisions of any contract of acquisition or the terms of the act;
(3) And the proposed unit is identical with the unit established in such collective bargaining agreement.
(c) In the event a petition seeks to add a group of employees not covered by an existing SMCS-certification, it shall be necessary to submit authorization or membership applications only for that portion of the proposed unit attributable to such accretion.
