Notice
Summary
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is sharing updates about off-the-record communications in ongoing cases. If someone sends a secret message that’s not allowed, it gets logged but usually won’t affect decisions unless fairness calls for it. This keeps the process fair and transparent, with no extra costs or delays for the public or parties involved.
