(1) The agency
shall admit and give probative effect to evidence admissible in a Court and,
when necessary to ascertain facts not reasonably susceptible to proof under the

affairs. The agency shall give effect to the rules of privilege recognized by
law and shall exclude evidence which in its judgment is irrelevant, immaterial,
or unduly repetitious.

Documentary evidence otherwise admissible may be received in the form of copies
or excerpts, or by incorporation by reference to material already on file with
the agency.

of judicially cognizable facts. In addition, notice may be taken of generally
