(b) Request for Commission Subpoena. A request for a

commission subpoena, under AS 22.30.066, shall be made to

the executive director and must include

(1) the name of the person or document to be

subpoenaed;

(2) the purpose and relevance of the testimony or

document; and

(3) a statement whether the person or document would

be available without a subpoena.

(c) Non-Compliance With Commission Subpoena. If a
