An individual who is dissatisfied with an informal administrative review decision and wishes to appeal the issues further shall, within 30 days of receipt of the informal administrative review officer's decision, request the appeals coordinator to schedule a fair hearing. Failure to request that a fair hearing be scheduled within that time shall be deemed a waiver of the individual's right to a fair hearing. The Commission reserves the right to waive the time requirement in the event of extraordinary circumstances or if the limitations imposed by the individual's disability have contributed to the delay in filing.
