(2) amendments to any pleadings, notices or replies for purposes of clarification;

(3) stipulations, admissions of fact, contents or authenticity of documents, or the accuracy of any photocopy or reproduction intended to be introduced at the hearing;

(4) limitations on the number of witnesses; and

(5) other matters which would expedite the disposition of the proceeding.
