Administrative subpoenas. <br />Upon the hearing board's own initiative, or upon written request of an interested party <br />demonstrating the need, the board may issue a subpoena for the attendance of a <br />witness or the production of books, papers, records, or other documents that are <br />material to the matter being heard.
