DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Issuance of Decisions and Orders During the Week of February 6 
Through February 10, 1995

    During the week of February 6 through February 10, 1995 the 
decisions and orders summarized below were issued with respect to 
applications for relief filed with the Office of Hearings and Appeals 
of the Department of Energy. The following summary also contains a list 
of submissions that were dismissed by the Office of Hearings and 
Appeals.

Personnel Security Hearing

Albuquerque Operations Office, 2/9/95, VSO-0005

    An Office of Hearings and Appeals Hearing Officer issued an opinion 
concerning the continued eligibility of an individual for access 
authorization under 10 C.F.R. Part 710, ``Criteria and Procedures for 
Determining Eligibility for Access to Classified Matter or Special 
Nuclear Material.'' After considering the record in view of the 
standards set forth in Part 710, the Hearing Officer found that the DOE 
Operations Office had presented sufficient derogatory information 
concerning the individual's abuse of [[Page 13153]] alcohol, her use of 
illegal drugs, and her false statements to the DOE concerning her 
illegal drug use to support its revocation of her access authorization. 
The Hearing Officer also found that the individual failed to present 
sufficient evidence of rehabilitation or reformation to mitigate this 
derogatory information, and that it would be clearly inappropriate to 
extend the proceeding for a year or more to enable the individual to 
establish rehabilitation. Finally, the Hearing Officer found that he 
lacked authority to review the determination of the Office of Security 
Affairs to deny the individual admission to the Employee Assistance 
Program Referral Option, and that Executive Order 12564 clearly did not 
require the DOE to maintain an individual's access authorization 
pending their completion of a drug rehabilitation program. Accordingly, 
the Hearing Officer found that the individual's access authorization 
should not be restored.

Refund applications

Coca-Cola Co. of Los Angeles, et al., 2/8/95, RC272-268, et al.

    The DOE issued a Decision and Order concerning eight Applications 
for Refund submitted in the Subpart V crude oil refund proceeding by 
former affiliates of Beatrice Co., Inc.: Coca-Cola Co. of Los Angeles, 
Beatrice Cheese, Americold (MA), Tropicana Products, Inc., Swift 
Eckrich, Inc., Americold Corp. (OR), Ozarka Spring Co., and Great Bear 
Spring Co. The OHA previously granted crude oil refunds to these eight 
Applicants. We have subsequently found, however, that they were 
affiliated with Arrowhead Drinking Water Company (Arrowhead) on August 
7, 1986. Arrowhead had filed in the Surface Transporters Stripper Well 
proceeding. In doing so, Arrowhead had executed a waiver and release 
waiving its right and the right of its affiliates on August 7, 1986, to 
receive crude oil overcharge refunds from OHA under Subpart V. 
Accordingly, this Decision rescinded the refunds granted to the eight 
applicants.
