(a) Transcript and reporter's fees. A hearing conducted pursuant to this subpart will be transcribed verbatim. The procedures for obtaining a transcript and paying the associated fees are as follows:

(1) DCHD will secure the services of a reporter to prepare a transcript and will pay the reporter's fees to provide an original transcript to DCHD.

(2) Each party is responsible for obtaining and paying for its copy of the transcript consistent with any statutory or regulatory provisions governing the proceeding.

(3) The government agency, bureau, or office participating in the hearing as a party will be responsible for reimbursing DCHD for reporting fees.

(b) Official transcript. The official transcript, along with any exhibits, must be duly certified by the reporter and submitted to the ALJ for filing as part of the proceeding along with any corrections made pursuant to paragraph (c) of this section.

(c) Corrections. (1) Any party may file a motion proposing corrections to the transcript. The motion must be filed within 10 days of receipt of the transcript unless the ALJ orders otherwise.

(2) If no party files a timely motion, the ALJ will presume that the transcript is correct and complete, except for obvious typographical errors.

(3) As soon as feasible after the conclusion of the hearing and after consideration of any motions proposing correction, the ALJ will issue an order making any corrections to the transcript that the ALJ finds are warranted.
