Designated Intake Channels
The Authority maintains two official submission pathways. Selecting the appropriate pathway helps ensure timely routing and review.
The Authority does not act as an arbitrator between private parties. Submissions are evaluated solely within the scope of the Authority’s certification and enforcement responsibilities.
