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 DOE granted a refund filed in the

Apex/Clark special refund proceeding.

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.
