DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
 

Issuance of Proposed Decisions and Orders; Week of January 3 
Through January 7, 1994

    During the week of January 3 through January 7, 1994, the proposed 
decisions and orders summarized below were issued by the Office of 
Hearings and Appeals of the Department of Energy with regard to 
applications for exception.
    Under the procedural regulations that apply to exception 
proceedings (10 CFR part 205, subpart D), any person who will be 
aggrieved by the issuance of a proposed decision and order in final 
form may file a written notice of objection within ten days of service. 
For purposes of the procedural regulations, the date of service of 
notice is deemed to be the date of publication of this Notice or the 
date an aggrieved person receives actual notice, whichever occurs 
first.
    The procedural regulations provide that an aggrieved party who 
fails to file a notice of objection within the time period specified in 
the regulations will be deemed to consent to the issuance of the 
proposed decision and order in final form. An aggrieved party who 
wishes to contest a determination made in a proposed decision and order 
must also file a detailed statement of objections within 30 days of the 
date of service of the proposed decision and order. In the statement of 
objections, the aggrieved party must specify each issuance of fact or 
law that it intends to contest in any further proceeding involving the 
exception matter.
    Copies of the full text of these proposed decisions and orders are 
available in the Public Reference Room of the Office of Hearings and 
Appeals, room 1E-234, Forrestal Building, 1000 Independence Avenue, 
SW., Washington, DC 20585, Monday through Friday, between the hours of 
1 p.m. and 5 p.m., except federal holidays.

    Dated: February 25, 1994.
George B. Breznay,
Director, Office of Hearings and Appeals.

Request for Exception

Marbob Energy Corporation, Artesia, New Mexico, LEE-0066 Reporting 
Requirements

    Marbob Energy Corporation filed an Application for Exception from 
the requirement that it file Form EIA-23, the ``Annual Survey of 
Domestic Oil and Gas Reserves.'' In considering the request, the DOE 
found that the firm was not adversely affected by the reporting 
requirement in a way that was significantly different from the burden 
born by similar reporting firms. Accordingly, on January 7, 1994, the 
DOE issued a Proposed Decision and Order tentatively determining that 
the exception request should be denied.

Miller's Bottled Gas, Inc., Bowling Green, Kentucky, LEE-0059 Reporting 
Requirements

    Miller's Bottled Gas, Inc. (Miller's) filed an Application for 
Exception from the provision of filing Form EIA-782B, entitled 
``Reseller/Retailers' Monthly Petroleum Product Sales Report.'' The 
exception request, if granted, would permit Miller's to be temporarily 
exempted from filing Form EIA-782B. On January 5, 1994, the Department 
of Energy issued a Proposed Decision and Order which determined that 
the exception request be denied.

Paulson Oil Company, Chesterton, Indiana, LEE-0060 Reporting 
Requirements

    Paulson Oil Company filed an Application for Exception from the 
Energy Information Administration (EIA) requirement that it file Form 
EIA-782B, the ``Reseller/Retailer's Monthly Petroleum Product Sales 
Report.'' In considering this request, the DOE found that the firm was 
not suffering gross inequity or serious hardship. Accordingly, on 
January 7, 1994, the DOE issued a Proposed Decision and Order 
determining that the exception request should be denied.
