Tnis program is'esigned to ease the econo"ic ourden on inta tenors in tne Commi ssion's adjudica"ory proceedings oy provid"'ng free copies-oi transcripts and by copying and serving without chz=ge certain oi the documents tne'ntervenors need to participate in"he proceedings.
Under the program the Commission has also reduced , f"o 20 to 2 tne number.of copies of f lings required of all parties.."or the reasons ind'cated below',~e conclude-hzt, vith the~a:ception of the reduction of requ" red copies, the Commission may not lz.=fully use its fiscal year 1981 appropriation to implement the cos" reduct'on program.The Commission s adopt'on of the program vas announced in the-ederzl Register" on July'25, 1980, (45".ec.Beg.4 535)~The prog"am-zs e=fectec by means o~three am ndments te the Commission's regula-=='o..s re zting to adjudicztory licensing proceedings in 10 C:"R Par-2."-'rst, Section 2.708(d)of that par"~zs amended by reducing fro 20 to 2 the nu-ber of cop"'es of pleadings or other documents that.eve y pa ty to the proceeding is equired to file.Second, Section 2.712 was amended by adding a provision thzt, except in antitrust proceedings, the Commission
~all copy znd serve, at no cost to the pzrty, the pa"ty s tes"imony, proposed ndings of fact and con-c" sions o 1"w, and responses to d'covery requests.'nis free copyng znd service is available=
to all pa"ties to the proceeding except the appl'cant for the'icense.n'rd, Section 2.750~vs z ended by adding.a provision~lo-'~ng the presiding o=ficer at he proceeding to p ovide a ree transcript of tne proceeding to any party, other.than the zpplicznt, zt the same time that the Cozr~ssion-st-=f receives its copies.
B-200585 funds-for czrrying-out--the
<omission's-functions for fiscal veer 1981, were appropriated by the=nergy-nd Vzter Development Appropriation Act, 1981, Pub.L.No.96-367, 94 Stat.1331.Section 502 of this Act provides: "Hone of.the funds in'thi's Act shall be used to pay~the expenses of, or otherwise compensate parties intervening in regulatory or adjuc catory proceedings
~funded in th s Act,." (94 Stzt.1345)It is clea>>from th'lzngua'ge that f the procedural cos" reduction program will pay the expenses of intervenors in the Commis sion'ad j udicato y proceedings the Co"'s on=ay not use funds appropriated

.Finally, it is certain that the pro gra will"pay tne expenses o f" the inte venors.Clea'rly if t'ne Co'sion did ao t adopt the cost.reduction pro g zm then the costs of purchzsing transcripts and copying and serving documents would be expenses that the intervenors would hzve to bear if they were to p-rtic'pz" e in the Com~'sion's proceedings'y bearing these costs i" sel=, the Commission is necessarily pay'ng expenses of the inte~eno'"s even"hough the Comm ssion is not mak"'g any cash pay ents directly to the intervenors
