Office of Hearings and Appeals

Implementation of Special Refund

Procedures

AGENCY: Office of Hearings and Appeals,

Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of Implementation of

Special Refund Procedures.

SUMMARY: The Office of Hearings and

Appeals (OHA) of the Department of

Energy announces the procedures for

disbursement of $1,140,552.84 (plus

accrued interest) in alleged or

adjudicated crude oil overcharges

obtained by the DOE from Gil-Mc Oil

Corporation (Case No. LEF–0054),

LeClair Operating Company (Case No.

LEF–0054), SRG Corporation (Case No.

LEF–0056), Petroleum Carrier Company

(Case No.LEF–0119) and Dane Energy

Company (LEF–0122). The OHA has

determined that the funds obtained from

these firms, plus accrued interest, will

be distributed in accordance with the

DOE’s Modified Statement of

Restitutionary Policy in Crude Oil

Cases, 51 Fed. Reg. 27899 (August 4,

1986).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Richard T. Tedrow, Deputy Director,

Office of Hearings and Appeals,

Washington, DC 20585, (202) 426–1562.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In

accordance with 10 CFR 205.282(c),

notice is hereby given of the issuance of

the Decision and Order set forth below.

The Decision and Order sets for the

procedures that the DOE has formulated

to distribute a total of $1,140,553, plus

accrued interest, remitted to the DOE by

Gil-Mc Oil Corporation, LeClair

Operating Company, SRG Corporation,

Petroleum Carrier Company, and Dane

Energy Company. The DOE is currently

holding these funds in interest bearing

escrow accounts pending distribution.

The OHA will distribute these funds in

accordance with the DOE’s Modified

Statement of Restitutionary Policy in

Crude Oil Cases, 51 FR 27899 (August

4, 1986) (the MSRP). Under the MSRP,

crude oil overcharge monies are divided

among the federal government, the

states, and injured purchasers of refined

petroleum products. Refunds to the

states will be distributed in proportion

to each state’s consumption of

petroleum products during the price

control period. Refunds to eligible

purchasers will be based on the volume

of petroleum products that they

purchased and the extent to which they

can demonstrate injury. Because the

June 30, 1995, deadline for the crude oil

refund applications has passed, no new

applications from purchasers of refined

petroleum products will be accepted for

the 20 percent of these funds allocated

to individual claimants. Instead, that

share of the funds will be added to the

general crude oil overcharge pool used

for direct restitution.

Dated: May 16, 1996.

Director, Office of Hearings and Appeals.

Case Numbers: LEF–0054, LEF–0055, LEF–

The Economic Regulatory Administration

(ERA) of the Department of Energy filed five

Petitions for the Implementation of Special

Refund Procedures with the Office of

Hearings and Appeals (OHA), to distribute

funds remitted to the DOE pursuant to

settlements between Gil-Mc Oil Corporation

(Gil-Mc), LeClair Operating Company

(LeClair), SRG Corporation (SRG), Petroleum

Carrier Company, (Petroleum Carrier), and

Dane Energy Company (Dane). A total of

$1,140,553, plus interest, is available for

restitution. All of these funds are now being

held in an interest-bearing account pending

a determination regarding their proper

disposition.

In accordance with the procedural

regulations codified at 10 C.F.R. Part 205,

Subpart V, the ERA requests in its Petitions

that the OHA establish special refund

procedures to remedy the effects of any

regulatory violations which were resolved by

these settlements. This Decision and Order

sets forth the OHA’s final plan to distribute

these funds. For a more detailed discussion

of Subpart V and the authority of the OHA

to fashion procedures to distribute refunds,

Restitution Act of 1986, 15 U.S.C. §§ 4501–

I. Background

On June 16, 1982, the DOE issued a

Proposed Remedial Order (PRO) to Gil-Mc

which alleged that certain first sales of crude

oil by Gil-Mc had been in excess of

applicable ceiling prices during the period

August 19, 1973 through January 27, 1981.

The DOE and Gil-Mc entered into a Consent

Order on March 29, 1983, which satisfied the

DOE’s claim against Gil-Mc. There is a total

of $10,273, plus interest, available from GilMc for restitution.

On June 3, 1982, the DOE issued a PRO to

LeClair which alleged that certain first sales

of crude oil by LeClair had been in excess of

applicable ceiling prices during the period

August 19, 1973 through January 27, 1981.

The DOE and LeClair entered into a Consent

Order on November 5, 1982, which satisfied

the DOE’s claim against LeClair. There is a

total of $70,386, plus interest, available from

LeClair for restitution.

On July 23, 1982, the DOE entered into a

Consent Order with SRG which resolved

DOE’s claims against SRG. Specifically, the

DOE alleged that during the period of August

19, 1973 through January 27, 1981, crude oil

was sold from certain properties operated by

SRG in excess of the applicable lawful ceiling

prices. There is a total of $171,041, plus

interest, available from SRG for restitution.

On June 26, 1987, the DOE issued a

Remedial Order to Petroleum Carrier for

violations of the crude oil pricing regulations

during the period from June 1974 through

December 1977. The DOE collected a total of

$18,853 from Petroleum Carrier pursuant to

the Remedial Order. That amount, plus

interest, is available for restitution.

On December 10, 1992, the DOE issued a

Remedial Order to Dane for violations of the

crude oil pricing regulations during the

period December 1978 through December

1980. The DOE and Dane entered into a

Consent Order on December 16, 1993, which
