Office of Hearings and Appeals

Notice of Issuance of Decisions and

Orders During the Week of December

12 Through December 16, 1994

During the week of December 12

through December 16, 1994, the

decisions and orders summarized below

were issued with respect to applications

for other 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.

Request for Exception

Olympic Oil Co., Inc., 12/14/94, LEE–

0160

Olympic Oil Co., Inc. (Olympic) filed

an Application for Exception from the

Energy Information Administration

(EIA) requirement that it file Form EIA–

782B, the ‘‘Resellers’/Retailers’ Monthly

Petroleum Product Sales Report.’’

Olympic claimed that it should be

relieved of the requirement because it

had been filing the form since January

1993 and because the task took the

firm’s limited office staff over four hours

to complete each month. In considering

this request, the DOE found that

Olympic was not suffering gross

inequity or serious hardship.

Accordingly, on October 24, 1994, the

DOE issued a Proposed Decision and

Order determining that the exception

request should be denied. Neither

Olympic nor any other party filed an

Objection to that Proposed Decision and

Order, so the DOE issued it in final

form.

Refund Applications

Garrison Fuel Oil of L.I., Inc., 12/12/94,

RF272–92317

The DOE issued a Decision and Order

concerning the Application for Refund

of a claimant in the Subpart V crude oil

overcharge refund proceeding. The DOE

determined that the applicant resold the

refined petroleum products that formed

the basis of its application and thus

passed on the costs of any overcharges

to its customers. The DOE concluded

that the claimant had not shown that it

was injured by any of the overcharges

associated with the gallons that it

purchased. Accordingly, the DOE

denied the Application for Refund.

Texaco Inc./D & B Texaco, 12/14/94,

RF321–20008, RF321–2009

Donald Maile requested refunds based

on purchases of Texaco products made

by two service stations that he operated.

Mr. Maile’s estimates of the outlets’

purchases were based only on his

memory of his businesses, and the DOE

relied instead on information obtained

from Texaco; in one case, the purchase

volume provided by Texaco was much

lower than Mr. Maile’s estimate. In

addition, the evidence submitted

strongly suggested that Mr. Maile’s

businesses were operated as

partnerships. Accordingly, the DOE

issued a Decision granting Mr. Maile

one-half of the refund due to each

station.

Texaco Inc./H&R Texaco Station, 12/13/

94, RR321–168

The DOE issued a Decision and Order

concerning a Motion for

Reconsideration filed by Howell and

Richard Sumrall in the Texaco Inc.

special refund proceeding on behalf of

H&R Texaco Station (H&R), a reseller

located in Evansville, Indiana. A refund

previously had been granted for

purchases made by the station from

1972 through January 1977. However, it

came to the attention of the DOE that

this refund was incorrectly based on a

time period during which the Sumralls

did not operate the station. In the

Motion, the Sumralls satisfactorily

documented the time period during

which they operated the station and

established that the correct refund

amount was in excess of the previously

received refund amount. The total

amount of the additional refund granted

to the Sumralls in this Decision was

$579 ($404 principal plus $175 interest).

Orders concerning refund applications,

BILLING CODE 6450–01–P

Notice of Issuance of Decisions and

Orders During the Week of December

19 through December 23, 1994

During the week of December 19

through December 23, 1994 the

decisions and orders summarized below

were issued with respect to appeals and

applications for exception or other 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.

Appeal

E.O. Smelser, 12/21/94, VFA–0011

E.O. Smelser filed a Motion for

Reconsideration of the denial by the

Office of Hearings and Appeals of his

previous Freedom of Information Act

(FOIA) Appeal. In his original FOIA

request, Mr. Smelser had requested

copies of computer tapes for databases

created under a grant program which

the DOE had funded. In considering the

Motion, the OHA found that Mr.

Smelser did not introduce any new

evidence or changed circumstances that

would warrant granting the motion for

reconsideration. Accordingly, the

Motion was denied.

Requests for Exception

Bender Oil Company, 12/19/94, LEE–

0150

Bender Oil Company (Bender) filed an

Application for Exception from the

provisions of the Energy Information

Administration (EIA) reporting

requirements in which the firm sought

relief from filing Form EIA–782B,

entitled ‘‘Resellers’/Retailers’ Monthly

Petroleum Product Sales Report.’’ The

DOE determined that Bender did not

meet the standards for exception relief

because it was not experiencing a

serious hardship or gross inequity as a

result of the reporting requirements.

Accordingly, exception relief was

denied.

Berreth Oil, Inc., 12/20/94, LEE–0093

Berreth Oil, Inc. (Berreth) filed an

Application for Exception from the

Energy Information Administration

(EIA) requirement that it file Form EIA–

782B, the ‘‘Resellers’/Retailers’ Monthly

Petroleum Product Sales Report,’’ and

Form EIA–821, the ‘‘Annual Fuel Oil

and Kerosene Sales Report.’’ In

considering this request, the DOE found

that the firm was not suffering a gross

inequity or serious hardship. On July

25, 1994, the DOE issued a Proposed

Decision and Order determining that the

exception request should be denied. No

Notice of Objections to the Proposed

Decision and Order was filed at the

Office of Hearings and Appeals of the

DOE within the prescribed time period.

Therefore, the DOE issued the Proposed

Decision and Order in final form,

denying Berreth’s Application for

Exception.

Personnel Security Hearing

Albuquerque Operations Office, 12/22/

94, VSO–0001

The Office of Hearings and Appeals

issued the first Hearing Officer Opinion

addressing the continued eligibility of

an individual for access authorization

under the newly amended provisions of

10 C.F.R. Part 710, ‘‘Criteria and

Procedures for Determining Eligibility

for Access to Classified Matter or

Special Nuclear Material.’’ After

carefully considering the record in view

of the standards set forth in 10 C.F.R.

Part 710, the Hearing Officer found that

the individual had engaged in criminal

behavior which tended to show that she

was not honest, reliable, or trustworthy,

and that she had omitted significant

information from a Questionnaire for

Sensitive Positions. The Hearing Officer

also found that there were no mitigating
