# §178.37. Order responding to objections on which a hearing was not requested or was denied.

- (a) The Administrator will publish in the Federal Register an order under FFDCA [section 408(g)(2)(B)](/cfr/40/408.md?p=g-2-B) or [section 408(g)(2)(C)](/cfr/40/408.md?p=g-2-C) setting forth the Administrator's determination on each denial of a request for a hearing, and on each objection submitted under [§ 178.20](/cfr/40/178.20.md) on which:
  - (1) **A hearing was not requested.**
  - (2) **A hearing was requested, but denied.**
- (b) Each order published under [paragraph (a)](#a) of this section must state the reasons for the Administrator's determination. If the order denies a request for a hearing on the objection, the order also must state the reason for that denial (e.g., why the request for a hearing did not conform to [§ 178.27](/cfr/40/178.27.md), or why the request was denied under [§ 178.32](/cfr/40/178.32.md)).
- (c) Each order published under [paragraph (a)](#a) of this section must state its effective date.
