| General |
(a) When there is a hearing, the record shall be closed at the
conclusion of the hearing unless the administrative law judge directs
otherwise.
(b) If any party waives a hearing, the record shall be closed on the
date set by the administrative law judge as the final date for the
receipt of submissions of the parties to the matter.
(c) Once the record is closed, no additional evidence shall be
accepted into the record except upon a showing that new and material
evidence has become available which was not readily available prior to
the closing of the record. However, the administrative law judge shall
make part of the record, any motions for attorney fees authorized by
statutes, and any supporting documentation, any determinations thereon,
and any approved correction to the transcript.
