Gloria Tanner requests a waiver and states the following: The untimely filing was not intentional and resulted from administrative oversight during a period when she was remodeling her home. Materials and documents from her home were packed and inadvertently placed in her attic. It took additional time to locate the required records to complete the reports. After discovering the issue, she immediately addressed it. She is actively working to ensure compliance and to improve her internal process to prevent this problem in the future. She would like to request that the fine be waived or reduced.
