WCAIS Update

It has been several months since the new computerized system went "on-line".  The results have been mixed.  There were initially severe delays in having petitions assigned, in the issuance of Decisions and in the issuance of hearing notices.  Slowly, the backlog is being processed.  New petitions are now getting assigned much more quickly and hearings are getting scheduled more quickly.  There are still substantial issues to work out, but the new system shows promise.
