(1) Information. The commission's website includes information about each pending rule-making proceeding under the docket number the commission has assigned to that rule making.
(2) Notification. The commission maintains lists of persons interested in potential rule-making proceedings that concern particular regulated industries and other areas of potential interest. The commission sends notice of rule-making proceedings via email to persons on these lists. Any person may request in writing that the commission's records center include them on the relevant list or lists. Such requests must include the person's name, entity and title (if the person is representing a company, association, or other organization), and email address. The commission may establish a fee for this service.
(3) Individual rule making. The commission also maintains a distribution list of persons to whom it sends electronic copies of notices, orders, or other documents it issues in individual rule making. Any interested person may be included on the distribution list the commission maintains for specific rule making by requesting in writing to be included on that list. Such requests must include the person's name, entity and title (if the person is representing a company, association, or other organization), and email address. In addition, the commission generally will include on that distribution list persons who file comments in the rule making unless those persons submit only generic comments as a member of an organization or other entity that prepared, sponsored, or otherwise generated or arranged for those comments.
