Guidelines for the filing of confidential information to the Commission
  •  
In order to simplify and expedite the filing of tariff and agreement applications, the Commission has created new checklists. The checklists will help you ensure that you have included all the required elements before submitting your documents. Filings that do not contain all the elements listed in the checklists will now be rejected as they are received. This practice will mean that non-compliant documents will be returned to you immediately rather than several days later, thereby reducing the processing time for your applications
