Section 62.01.01.601 - RECORDING OR REPORTING OF HEARINGS01.In-Person and Telephonic Hearings. All in-person and telephonic hearings shall be recorded at the agency's expense, either by audiotape, digital audio, and/or court reporter, as selected by the presiding officer. Any party requesting a video recording of an in-person or telephonic hearing may do so at their own expense, subject to the presiding officer's determination that the recording does not cause distraction or disruption, which determination may be made at any time before or during the hearing.02.Remote Video Hearings. All remote video hearings shall be recorded at the agency's expense, by digital audio, digital video, and/or court reporter, as selected by the presiding officer.03.Transcripts. Any party may request an official transcript of any recording of any hearing at their own expense. However, if a party uses an official transcript for any purpose in the contested case proceeding, the full official transcript must be provided to all parties and the presiding officer. If a party is required to provide a copy of an official transcript to all parties and the presiding officer, the presiding officer may, in their discretion, direct all other parties to contribute to the expense of the official transcript.04.Presiding Officers. In preparing any order, a presiding officer may rely upon any unofficial transcript of a hearing, including, but not limited to, any transcript automatically generated by computer software. If the presiding officer determines that an unofficial transcript of a hearing is incomplete or insufficient, or otherwise determines that an official transcript is required for any other reason, the presiding officer may direct the creation of an official transcript at the agency's expense. If the agency is not a party to the proceeding, the presiding officer may direct the creation of an official transcript at the parties' shared expense.Idaho Admin. Code r. 62.01.01.601
