The role of the panel members is to make a finding, with respect to each disputed study request, on the extent to which each study criteria set forth in the regulations is or is not met,3 and why. The panel will then make a recommendation to the Director of the Office of Energy Projects based on the panel’s findings. 1 See 5.14 of the final rule at https:// www.ferc.gov/industries/hydropower/indus-act/ order-2002.asp. 2 These persons must not be otherwise involved with the proceeding. 3 See 5.9 of the final rule.
