[Docket No. RM98-1-000]


Regulations Governing Off-the-Record Communications; Public 
Notice

October 6, 2000.
    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 off-
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

[[Page 60932]]

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 received in the Office of the Secretary within the 
preceding 14 days. The documents may be viewed on the Internet at
