DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
 

Issuance of Decisions and Orders During the Week of July 4 
Through July 8, 1994

    During the week of July 4 through July 8, 1994, the decisions and 
orders summarized below were issued with respect to applications for 
refund 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.

Refund Applications

Texaco Inc./Canterbery's Texaco, 7/6/94, RR321-158

    The DOE issued a Decision and Order concerning Motion for 
Reconsideration that Jimmy Canterbery, the owner of Canterbery's 
Texaco, filed in the Texaco refund proceeding. Mr. Canterbery had 
previously filed an Application for Refund that was dismissed in 
July 1972 because of his failure to provide motor gasoline purchase 
information necessary to support his refund claim. In his 
reconsideration request, which was filed in June 1994, Mr. 
Canterbery included purchase information. However, this information 
was submitted more than three months after the final filing deadline 
in the Texaco proceeding and almost two years after the dismissal 
letter. Since Mr. Canterbery did not present any reason for the 
delay, the DOE determined that there was no compelling reason to 
reopen the refund proceeding to accept his claim. Accordingly, the 
Motion for Reconsideration was dismissed.

Time Oil Co./California, National Helium Corp./California, Charter 
Co./California, 7/7/94, RQ334-589, RQ3-590, RM23-269

    The DOE issued a Decision and Order granting two second-stage 
refund applications and a Motion for Modification filed by the State 
of California. In its applications and Motion for Modification, 
California requested a total of $1,273,646 of new Time Oil Co. and 
National Helium Corp. second-stage refund monies as well as approval 
to use $144,142 of previously allocated Charter Co. monies to fund 
four projects intended to reduce single-occupant motor vehicle 
travel, traffic congestion and fuel consumption. The DOE affirmed 
the timely restitutionary benefits of the state's plan for the 
funds, and identified the proposed recipients of those benefits (the 
people of California) as a substantial segment of injured consumers 
of refined petroleum products. The California plan was thus found to 
satisfy the criteria for a second-stage refund restitutionary 
program. Accordingly, California's Applications for Refund and 
Motion for Modification were granted.
