RE: Enclosed Nome Hearing Transcript and Addendums
Enclosed please
find the full verbatim transcripts and deposition exhibits from
the Nome regional hearing. Since the Commission meeting in late
September, we have been attempting to figure out the best way
of meeting the expressed desires of some Commission members to
have more and complete documentation of information flowing from
the Commission's various forums without inundating those whose
informational needs are not as great. Though I still feel that
providing full transcripts of all hearings to each Commission
member may be less than totally useful with respect to the time
and handling involved, there seemed to be enough interest in
the full transcripts to warrant supplying full sets to all members.
In order to help make the transcipts most useful
from an informational aspect, we have come up with an indexing
system that we hope
will prove applicable to all of the formal records of the Commission.
At the back of the transcripts and addendums you will find two
seperate indexes. The first is an alphabetical index which includes
names of individuals and organizations in addition to general
listings. The second is a subject matter index and reflects our
best attempt to come up with a general, "boiler-plate" index
that can be applied to other hearing records, meeting minutes,
and the "open public record" which consists mainly
of input that we receive by mail.
Our plan is to send one hearing
transcipt per week (so as not to swamp you with the entire up-to-date
record all at once) until
all hearing records to date have been sent. Then, as each future
hearing transcript becomes available we will, as a matter of
course, send indexed transcripts for your files. One
technical note: the various "deposition exhibits" (i.e. prepared
written testimony) has to be manually entered into our data base
by staff, so in the future there will still be a little bit of
lag time between when we get verbatim transcipts from the court
recorders and when the entire indexed data base for that particular
hearing is ready for distribution.
Happy reading!
