At any time after a request for compensation is filed, the commission or its staff may request additional financial information from the intervenor to clarify or substantiate the claim. The requested information may include, among other things, records, receipts, invoices, and other documents showing the intervenor's expenses incurred and financial condition.
If considered necessary by the commission, an applicant for compensation shall grant the staff of the commission and the department access to audit and examine pertinent books, documents, papers, and records, to the extent necessary to verify that the intervenor has insufficient financial resources to afford its intervenor costs and to verify the basis for the amount claimed.
Approved applicants shall retain the records relevant to supporting a claim for three years after receiving compensation.
