The petition for rehearing shall be in writing and shall contain all of the grounds upon which a rehearing should be granted.
Within 30 days after the filing of a petition for rehearing with the board, the board shall cause notice thereof to be served upon the other parties to the proceeding by mailing to each a copy of the petition for rehearing. The other parties to the proceeding shall have 20 calendar days from the date of service of a copy of the petition for rehearing to file with the board and serve upon the petitioner a response to the petition for rehearing.
