This rule lists the commission records which are open to the public, those which are confidential, and those which are partially open and partially confidential.

A single record may contain information from several categories.
The chart indicates whether the record contains personally identifiable information, and indicates the legal authority for confidentiality and for the collection of personally identifiable information.
