<br />3 <br /> <br />1 P.O. Box 3420, Durango, Colorado. <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />HEARING OFFICER SJAASTAD: Thank you. This is <br /> <br />3 an administrative hearing. The rules of evidence will be <br /> <br />4 relaxed. The order will be as follows: The Applicant will <br /> <br />5 present his case first. I note that there are no other <br /> <br />8 parties of record, so there will be no cross-examination of <br /> <br />1 the Applicant as such; however, questions for clarification <br /> <br />8 shall be allowed from anyone in the audience. <br /> <br />9 I propose to take these questions at the conclu- <br /> <br />10 sion of direct examination of each witness. I would reserve <br /> <br />11 the right to delay such questions until after the Applicant <br /> <br />12 has presented his entire case, if these questions should <br /> <br />13 become lengthy. And I'll caution that these questions are <br /> <br />14 questions for clarification, not in the nature of cross- <br /> <br />15 examina tion. <br /> <br />16 After the Applicant's case is completed, we will <br /> <br />17 reserve the right to recall any of his witnesses for further <br /> <br />18 questioning. Then, we'll take statements from persons not <br /> <br />19 parties to the case, and we'll take them in the order that <br /> <br />20 they may have signed up on this yellow sheet at the corner <br /> <br />21 of the table. <br />22 After we've gone through the list, we'll take <br /> <br />23 questions or comments or statements from anyone in the hearin <br /> <br />24 room. The statements may be either sworn or unsworn. We'll <br /> <br />2S take sworn testimony from the Applicant. Sworn statements <br />
