DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. RM98-1-000]
Regulations Governing Off-the-Record Communications; Public
Notice
November 27, 2002.
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 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).
The following is a list of exempt and prohibited off-the-record
communications recently received in the Office of the Secretary. These
filings are available for review at the Commission in the Public
Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's website at http://www.ferc.gov
using the ``FERRIS'' link. Enter the docket number
excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to access
