Extension Requested. As the Issuer, review the request and decide whether to approve
it, or reject it. You can review requests for more than one permit at the same time.

The list shows the permits that require extension approval.
-
Select the pending extension request permit.
-
To review more than one permit, select them from the list. Each permit opens in
its own tab at the top of the screen
-
Review the current and requested validity, reason, work status, JHA, site
conditions, isolations, atmospheric evidence, and conflicting work.
-
Click Take Action. The Permit Extension window
opens.
-
Change the dates in Suggest Alternative Date and Time to allow a different end
time.

Do one of the following:
- Click Approve to approve the request.
- To reject the request, enter the reason in the Comment box, and then
click Reject.
- If you approve, the message Permit Extension approved successfully appears, and
the permit validity is updated to the new end time.
