March 9, 2004.
    This constitutes notice, in accordance with 18 CFR 385.2201(b), of 
the receipt of exempt and prohibited off-the-record communications.
    Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222, September 22, 1999) requires Commission

[[Page 12323]]

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 a part of, the decisional 
record of the proceeding. Unless the Commission determines that the 
prohibited communication and any responses thereto should become a 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 a request only when it determines that fairness so requires. 
Any person identified below as having made a prohibited off-the-record 
communication shall 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).
    The following is a list of prohibited and exempt communications 
recently received in the Office of the Secretary. The communications 
listed are grouped by docket numbers. These filings are available for
