				N.J.A.C.
				17:33-2.9, they shall be delivered to DORES
				at the addresses set forth at (a)1, 2, or 3 below. All paper filing deliveries
				must be accompanied with instructions for returning acknowledgments or notices
				of refusal or removal. DORES will return filing acknowledgments or send notices
				of refusal using first class mail or leave items to be picked up at its office
				location. DORES will also return acknowledgments and notices using overnight
				courier, provided the remitter supplies the required envelopes with the return
				address and prepaid waybills showing the remitter's account with the courier.

				this method is no later than the next close of business following the time of
				delivery (even though the UCC filing may not yet have been accepted and may be
				subsequently refused). A UCC filing delivered after regular business hours or

				DORES makes available and administers. DORES will disseminate information about
				the electronic filing services, including instructions and fee schedules
				through the Internet. The date for a UCC filing delivered by this method will
				coincide with the workday that DORES' computer system analyzes the relevant
				transmission and determines that all the required elements have been received
				in the proper format and that payment of the filing fee has been tendered. An
				electronic UCC filing delivered after regular business hours or on a day DORES
				is not open for business, will have a filing date of the next business day and
