Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 28, July 13, 2024
The presiding officer at a conference may dispose of by
						ruling, irrespective of the consent of the participants, procedural matters
						which he is authorized to rule upon during the course of the proceeding, and
						which it appears may appropriately and usefully be disposed of at that stage.
						In addition, if it appears that the proceeding would be substantially expedited
						by distribution of proposed exhibits and written prepared testimony reasonably
						in advance of the hearing session, the presiding officer at his discretion and
						with due regard for the convenience and necessity of the parties, the staff of
						the agency and staff counsel, may direct the advance distribution by a
						prescribed date. The rulings of the presiding officer made at the conference
						shall control the subsequent course of the hearing, unless modified for good
						cause shown.
