[Docket No. RM98-1-000]


Regulations Governing Off-the-Record Communications; Public 
Notice

March 7, 2003.
    This constitutes notice, in accordance with 18 CFR 385.2201(h), of 
the receipt of exempt and prohibited off-the-record communications.
    Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222, September 22, 1999) requires Commission 
decisional employees, who make or receive an exempt or a prohibited 
off-the-record communication relevant to the merits of a contested on-
the-record proceeding, to deliver a copy of the communication, if 
written, or a summary of the substance of any oral communication, to 
the Secretary.
    Prohibited communications will be included in a public, non-
decisional file associated with, but not part of, the decisional record 
of the proceeding. Unless the Commission determines that the prohibited 
communication and any

[[Page 12069]]

responses thereto should become part of the decisional record, the 
prohibited off-the-record communication will not be considered by the 
Commission in reaching its decision. Parties to a proceeding may seek 
the opportunity to respond to any facts or contentions made in a 
prohibited off-the-record communication, and may request that the 
Commission place the prohibited communication and responses thereto in 
the decisional record. The Commission will grant such requests only 
when it determines that fairness so requires.
    Any person identified below as having made a prohibited off-the-
record communication should serve the document on all parties listed on 
the official service list for the applicable proceeding in accordance 
with rule 2010, 18 CFR 385.2010.
    Exempt off-the-record communications will be included in the 
decisional record of the proceeding, unless the communication was with 
a cooperating agency as described by 40 CFR 1501.6, made under 18 CFR 
385.2201(e)(1)(v).

off-the-record communications recently received in the Office of the 
Secretary. These filings are available for review at the Commission in
