Informal or expedited proceedings may be used when contested case proceedings are not required, for example, when:
Written submissions are the preferred method of introducing facts. The commission shall allow oral presentation of facts when that can be done without compromising the rights of any person or the integrity of the proceeding. In informal proceedings, the commission shall require that factual allegations be made under oath or by affirmation when facts appear to be in dispute. In expedited proceedings, the commission shall require that factual allegations be made under oath or by affirmation and that documents filed in the proceeding be verified.
The commission shall notify the persons on the official service list at least ten days before a meeting at which it may act on the basis of informal or expedited proceedings. Under exigent circumstances the executive secretary shall reduce the ten-day notice period.
