# §906.16. Reconsideration.

- (a) Any party may file a motion for reconsideration of an NAO decision issued under [§ 906.15](/cfr/15/906.15.md). The request must be filed with NAO within 10 days after service of NAO's decision. A party shall not file more than one motion for reconsideration of an NAO decision.
- (b) The motion must be in writing and contain a detailed statement of an error of fact or law material to the decision. The process of reconsideration is not a forum for reiterating the appellant's objections to the initial administrative determination.
- (c) Arguments not raised by a party in his or her motion for reconsideration of a decision will be deemed waived.
- (d) In response to a motion for reconsideration, NAO will either:
  - (1) Reject the motion because it does not meet the criteria of paragraph [(a)](#a) or [(b)](#b) of this section; or
  - (2) Issue a revised decision and serve a copy of its revised decision upon the appellant and the Regional Administrator.
- (e) At any time prior to notifying the Regional Administrator pursuant to [§ 906.17(a)](/cfr/15/906.17.md?p=a), the NAO may issue a revised decision to make corrections and serve a copy of its revised decision upon the appellant and the Regional Administrator.
