Sec. 305.10  Nonpublic character of proceedings.



    Investigations shall be attended only by the witnesses and their 

counsel, the administrative law judge, the Investigation Attorney, other 

DOT personnel concerned with the conduct of the proceeding and the 

official stenographer. All orders initiating investigations, motions to 

quash or modify investigation subpenas, orders disposing of such 

motions, documents, and transcripts of testimony shall be part of the 

record in the investigation. Unless DOT determines otherwise, all orders 

initiating investigations which do not disclose the identity of the 

particular persons of firms under investigation shall be published in 

the Federal Register. Except as otherwise required by law, the remainder 

of the record of such proceedings shall constitute internal DOT 

documents which shall not be available to the general public. The use of 

such records in DOT proceedings subject to part 302 of the Rules of 

Practice shall be governed by Sec. Sec. 302.25(g) and 302.12 and by the 

law of evidence applicable to DOT proceedings.
