# §1308.37. Decisions.

- (a) The Hearing Officer's decision shall be in writing. Except as provided by [§ 1308.35](/cfr/18/1308.35.md) or [§ 1308.36](/cfr/18/1308.36.md), the decision shall contain complete findings of fact and conclusions of law. The parties may be directed to submit proposed findings and conclusions. A decision against a Contractor on a claim shall include notice of the Contractor's rights under paragraphs (2) and (3) of section 10(a) of the Act.
- (b) If the decision denies any part of a Contractor's claim for lack of support and the Hearing Officer is of the opinion that the Contractor's inability to support that part is within [§ 1308.6](/cfr/18/1308.6.md) and section 5 of the Act, the decision shall not state that opinion, but contemporaneously with the decision the Hearing Officer shall separately notify TVA's General Counsel of that opinion and the reasons therefor.
- (c) Not later than 10 days after receipt of the decision, a party may move to alter or amend the findings or make additional findings and amend the conclusions and decision accordingly. Such a motion may be combined with a motion under [§ 1308.38](/cfr/18/1308.38.md). This time period cannot be extended.
