the Commission place the prohibited
communication and responses thereto
in the decisional record. The
Commission will grant such a request
only when it determines that fairness so
requires. Any person identified below as
having made a prohibited off-the-record
communication shall serve the

official service list for the applicable
proceeding in accordance with Rule
2010, 18 CFR 385.2010.
