Section 706.3968 - Pleadings: Approval or denial of petition to intervene; discovery1. If a petition for leave to intervene demonstrates that:(a) Based upon the contents of the petition required pursuant to NAC 706.3966, the petitioner has a direct and substantial interest in one or more of the elements of the proceeding; and(b) The intervention would not unduly broaden the issues, the Authority or presiding officer may grant leave for the petitioner to intervene or otherwise to appear in the proceeding with respect to those elements of the proceeding in which a direct and substantial interest is found, subject to such reasonable conditions as may be prescribed by the Authority or presiding officer.
2. Not later than 60 days after the date on which a petition for leave to intervene is received by the Authority, the Authority will or the presiding officer shall grant or deny the petition or set the petition for further proceedings.3. If the Authority or presiding officer grants a petition for leave to intervene in a matter in which the Authority or presiding officer deems prehearing discovery to be appropriate, the Authority will or the presiding officer shall prescribe discovery requirements and establish a schedule for the completion of discovery.4. If it appears during the proceedings that an intervener has no direct or substantial interest in the proceeding and that the public interest does not require his or her further participation, the Authority will or the presiding officer shall dismiss the intervener from the proceeding.Nev.
