Decision List No. 102, Week of September 7 through September 11, 1998

Appeal

William H. Payne, 9/10/98, VFA-0438

    The DOE's Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) issued a decision 
granting in part a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Appeal filed by 
William H. Payne. Payne sought the release of names withheld from 
investigative files released to him by the DOE's Office of Inspector 
General (IG). In its decision, OHA found that the IG's withholding of 
one of the names was appropriate under FOIA Exemptions 6 and 7(C). 
Accordingly, the Appeal was denied.

Personnel Security

Personnel Security Hearing, 9/10/98, VSO-208

    An OHA Hearing Officer issued an Opinion regarding the eligibility 
of an individual to maintain access authorization under the provisions 
of 10 C.F.R. Part 710. After considering the testimony presented at the 
hearing and the record, the Hearing Officer found that individual had 
used marijuana and violated a DOE Drug Certification. Accordingly, the 
Hearing Officer recommended that the individual's access authorization 
not be restored.
