Notice of Availability
If a document, including attachments, exceeds 75 pages, parties may serve a Notice of Availability in lieu of all or part of the document, in accordance with Rule 2.3(c) of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure.
Filing of Documents
These electronic service protocols govern service of documents only, and do not change the rules regarding the tendering of documents for filing. Documents for filing must be tendered in paper form, as described in Rule 2, et seq., of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure. Moreover, all filings shall be served in hard copy (as well as e-mail) on the assigned ALJ.
Attachment A
ELECTRONIC SERVICE PROTOCOLS
(Page 2)
As an aid to review of documents served electronically, appearances should follow these procedures:
1. Merge into a single electronic file the entire document to be served (e.g. title page, table of contents, text, attachments, service list).
2. Attach the document file to an electronic note.
3. In the subject line of the note, identify the proceeding number; the party sending the document; and the abbreviated title of the document.
4. Within the body of the note, identify the word processing program used to create the document. (Commission experience indicates that most recipients can open readily documents sent in Microsoft Word or PDF formats.
If the electronic mail is returned to the sender, or the recipient informs the sender of an inability to open the document, the sender shall immediately arrange for alternative service (paper mail shall be the default, unless another means is mutually agreed upon).

· To view and copy the electronic addresses for a service list, download the comma-delimited file, and copy the column containing the electronic addresses.
The Commission's Process Office periodically updates service lists to correct errors or to make changes at the request of parties and non-parties on the list. Appearances should copy the current service list from the web page (or obtain paper copy from the Process Office) before serving a document.
Pagination Discrepancies in Documents Served Electronically
Differences among word-processing software can cause pagination differences between documents served electronically and print outs of the original. (If documents are served electronically in PDF format, these differences do not occur.) For the purposes of reference and/or citation in cross-examination and briefing, all parties should use the pagination found in the original document.
