(a) It is the objector's responsibility to ensure timely filing of a written objection with the reviewing officer. Timeliness must be determined by the following indicators:
(1) The date of the U.S. Postal Service postmark for an objection received before the close of the fifth business day after the objection filing period;
(2) The agency's electronically generated posted date and time for email and facsimiles;
(3) The shipping date for delivery by private carrier for an objection received before the close of the fifth business day after the objection filing period; or
(4) The official agency date stamp showing receipt of hand delivery.
