Section 210.30 - Requests for production of documents and things and entry upon land(a)Scope.

The request shall specify a reasonable time, place, and manner of making the inspection and performing the related acts.(2) The party upon whom the request is served shall serve a written response within 10 days or the time specified by the administrative law judge. The response shall state, with respect to each item or category, that inspection and related activities will be permitted as requested, unless the request is objected to, in which event the reasons for objection shall be stated.
