Today PERB issued the following notice:
"FURLOUGH NOTICE
In response to Governor Schwarzenegger’s Executive Order S-16-08 ordering the furlough of State employees, the Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) will be closed for business on the first and third Fridays of each month (furlough days) beginning Friday, February 6, 2009. On furlough days, PERB offices will be closed and no business will be conducted. Presently scheduled furlough days: First and third Fridays of every month until June 30, 2010."
For those of you wondering how this affects due dates for PERB filings, note that PERB regulation 32130 provides that:
"In computing any period of time under these regulations, except under Section 32776(c), (d), (e) and (f), the period of time begins to run the day after the act or occurrence referred to. Whenever the last date to file a document falls on Saturday, Sunday, or a holiday, as defined in Government Code Sections 6700 and 6701, or PERB offices are closed, the time period for filing shall be extended to and include the next regular PERB business day. The extension of time provided herein shall be applied subsequent to the application of any other extension of time provided by these regulations or by other applicable law."
