Decision List No. 42, Week of July 14

Through July 18, 1997

Appeal

Tri-State Drilling, Inc., 7/18/97, VFA–

0304

The DOE’s Office of Hearings and

Appeals granted in part a Freedom of

Information Act Appeal filed by TriState Drilling, Inc. Tri-State sought the

release of unsuccessful bids for a

specific contract that the Bonneville

Power Administration (BPA) withheld

in their entirety. The DOE found that

BPA’s withholding was not sufficiently

explained and justified in its

determination letter. Accordingly, the

Appeal was remanded to BPA and

denied in all other aspects.

Personnel Security Hearings

Personnel Security Hearing, 7/14/97,

VSO–0128

A Hearing Officer recommended that

access authorization be restored when it

was uncontested that the individual

used an illegal drug on one occasion.

The individual’s statements that she had

only used illegal drugs on one occasion

were corroborated by independent

evidence. This evidence included the

results of twenty-one random drug tests

administered over a long period of time.

The Hearing Officer also found that it

was unlikely that the individual would

use illegal drugs again.

Personnel Security Hearing, 7/16/97,

VSO–0141

A Hearing Officer found that an

individual had successfully mitigated

security concerns arising from an

allegation that the individual had

molested his former foster child.

Accordingly, the Hearing Officer

recommended that the individual’s

access authorization be restored.

Petition for Special Redress

Philip P. Kalodner, 7/16/97, VSG–0001

Philip P. Kalodner requested a ‘‘class

fee’’ for his participation in the agency’s

enforcement proceeding against

Occidental Petroleum Corporation. The

DOE denied the request on the ground

that the purported class, Subpart V

claimants, had no cause of action or

right of intervention with respect to an

agency enforcement proceeding. The

DOE rejected Mr. Kalodner’s contention

that provisions in subparts O and V of

the DOE procedural regulations

authorized the requested fee. Finally,

the DOE rejected Mr. Kalodner’s

arguments based upon fairness.

Orders concerning refund applications,
