DECISION AND ORDER

OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Supplemental Order

Names of Cases: Jim’s Electrical Service, et al.

Dates of Filing: June 9, 1997, et al.

Case Numbers: RK272-04455, et al.

This Decision and Order will consider seven (7) Applications for Supplemental Refund filed in the Subpart V crude oil refund proceeding.(1)

The Appendix to this Decision and Order contains the names of seven (7) Applicants receiving supplemental refund checks. In each case, we were informed that there had been a change of circumstances since the original refund was disbursed. Accordingly, we set up a new case file (designated RK272-).(2) We then investigated whether the firm upon whose behalf the form was submitted was the proper party to receive the supplemental refund. On the basis of that investigation, we have determined that the parties listed in the Appendix are the proper recipients for those supplemental refunds.

The first five (5) Applicants listed in the Appendix applied through the filing service Petroleum Funds, Inc. In accordance with their instructions, we will direct their refunds to the filing service. The last two (2) Applicants listed in the Appendix applied without the assistance of a filing service and will receive their checks directly. The total amount of additional refunds

being approved in this Order for the benefit of seven (7) Applicants is $12,101.

It Is Therefore Ordered That:

(1) The Director of Special Accounts and Payroll, Office of Departmental Accounting and Financial Systems Development, Office of the Controller of the Department of Energy shall take appropriate action to disburse a supplemental refund to the seven (7) Crude Oil Refund Recipients listed in the Appendix to this Order. The total refund amount approved in this Order, for the benefit of seven (7) Applicants, is $12,101.

(2) The funds shall be disbursed from the escrow fund denominated Crude Tracking-Claimants 4, Account No. 999DOE010Z, maintained at the Department of the Treasury.

(3) The first five (5) Applicants listed in the Appendix applied through the filing service Petroleum Funds, Inc. In accordance with their instructions, we will direct their refunds to: “Petroleum Funds, Inc., P.O. Box 1380, 309 N. Market Street, Paris, TN 38242.” One check should be issued to Petroleum Funds, Inc. in the total amount of $7,601.

(4) The last two (2) Applicants listed in the Appendix applied without the assistance of a filing service and will receive their checks directly. The address to which these two (2) checks should be sent is included in the Appendix to this Order.

(5) To facilitate the payment of future refunds, an Applicant shall notify the Office of Hearings and Appeals in the event that there is a change of address, or if an address correction is necessary. Such notification shall be sent to:

(6) Any conditions that applied to an Applicant's receipt of the initial crude oil refund shall also apply to that Applicant's receipt of this supplemental refund.
