All other persons may apply to the Commission for leave to intervene as parties.

A person whose application to intervene is denied may appeal such denial to the circuit court pursuant to section 91-14, HRS.
Petitions to intervene shall be in conformity with section 15-15-53, HAR. The petition for intervention with proof of service on all parties shall be filed with the Commission within fifteen (15) days after the publication of this notice.
