10- 144 C.M.R. ch. 503, § 8-6 - Maintenance of the record
The record created pursuant to subsection 5 first opens on the day the Department publishes its notice that an application for a Certificate of Need has been filed. From that day, all of the record is a public record under the Maine Freedom of Access Act, and any person may examine that record and purchase copies of any or all of that record during the normal business hours of the Department.
The record is closed 10 days after a public notice of the closing of the record has been published in a newspaper of general circulation in Kennebec County, in a newspaper published within the service area of the project and on the Department's publicly accessible site on the Internet, as long as such notice is not published until after the preliminary staff analysis of the application is made part of the record. 22 M.R.S.A. Sec.335(6).
