Mary Burket, 3/24/98, VFA–0384

(FOIA) Appeal filed by Mary Burket.

Burket sought the release of journals or

logs showing that her father had worked

on the decontamination and

decommissioning of the SL–1 reactor at

the Idaho National Engineering

Laboratory. In its decision, OHA found

that the DOE’s search for responsive

information was more than adequate.

Accordingly, the Appeal was denied.

Farmers Petroleum Cooperative, Et

Al., 3/25/98, RF344–0001, Et Al.

refunds in the Stripper Well refund

settlement. The total refund granted to

the 25 applicants was $1,716,784.

Decision List No. 80

Week of April 6 Through April 10, 1998

Appeals

Hobart T. Bolin, Jr., 4/10/98, VFA–0390

The DOE’s Office of Hearings and

Appeals (OHA) issued a decision

granting a Freedom of Information Act

Appeal filed by Hobart T. Bolin, Jr.

Bolin sought the release of documents

relating to an incident that occurred at

the DOE’s Oak Ridge Operations Office

(OR) site in 1995, and OR released

certain documents to him. In his

Appeal, Bolin provided information

about possible additional responsive

documents that OR had not included in

its original search. Accordingly, the

Appeal was granted and Bolin’s request

was remanded to OR for a further search

for responsive documents.

William H. Payne, 4/10/98, VFA–0391

The Department of Energy (DOE)

issued a Decision and Order (D&O)

denying a Freedom of Information Act

(FOIA) Appeal that was filed by William

H. Payne. In his Appeal, Mr. Payne

requested that we review a

determination issued by the

Albuquerque Operations Office that

invoices submitted by a law firm to a

DOE contractor are not ‘‘agency

records,’’ and are therefore not subject

to the FOIA. In the Decision, the Office

of Hearings and Appeals found that

documents were not agency records,

and that they were also not subject to

release pursuant to the contractor

records provision of 10 C.F.R.

§ 1004.3(e)(1).

Refund Application

Apex Oil Co./Clark Oil Co./GO-TANE

Service Stations, Inc., RF342–278

The OHA denied a request for a refund

based on alleged Clark allocation

violations and for reimbursement of

legal and accounting fees, but approved

a refund of $432,497 for injury suffered

as a result of alleged Clark overcharges.
