The document is a notice from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) about off-the-record communications. These include communications that are either prohibited or exempt, as they pertain to certain legal proceedings. Prohibited communications will not be considered unless fairness requires them to be part of the decision-making record, while exempt communications are generally included. The notice lists recent off-the-record communications, which can be reviewed electronically through FERC's website.
Simple Explanation
The notice is about rules for secret talks that happen when deciding big energy projects. Some talks aren't allowed, unless being fair means they should be heard, and others are always okay.
