Dismissed
The appeal was dismissed as the January 2025 backfill decision, which was for record-keeping purposes only and not subject to review, did not constitute an adjudicative determination.
The deciding factor: The Board determined that the January 2025 backfill decision lacked the requisite assessment of legal or factual issues and thus could not be appealed through a Notice of Disagreement.
