A. Purposes. Upon written notice by the Commission in any proceeding, parties of record or their authorized representative may be directed to meet before a designated staff member at a specified time and place for a conference, prior to a hearing, for the purpose of formulating issues, and considering:
B. Report of Stipulations. Following the prehearing conference, a proposed Report of Stipulations, reciting the action taken at the conference, amendments allowed to the pleadings, if any, and agreements, if any, made by the parties of record concerning all of the matters considered, shall be provided to the parties of record or their authorized representatives for approval. If no objection to the Report of Stipulations is filed within ten days after the date such Report is mailed, it shall be deemed to be approved. This Report, when approved, shall limit the issues to be heard at the hearing to those not disposed of by admissions or agreements of the parties or their authorized representative and will control the subsequent course of the formal proceeding unless modified at the hearing to prevent manifest injustice.
