DECISION AND ORDER

OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Supplemental Order

Name of Petitioner: Glenda Van Note

Case Numbers: RK272-05564

RA272-00084

Dates of Filing: November 10, 1999

January 21, 2000

On October 20, 1999, the Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) of the Department of Energy (DOE) issued a Supplemental Order to L.C. Cassidy & Sons of Florida, Inc. rescinding a refund that was granted to the firm in an earlier Decision, E.M.H. of Larsen, et al., RF272-93819, et al.,(June 2, 1994). In the June 2, 1994, Decision, this Office granted a refund in the amount of $330 to Glenda Van Note or L.C. Cassidy & Sons of Florida, Inc., but the check was not cashed, and was cancelled by the U.S. Treasury. This Office was unable to contact the firm or Mrs. Van Note, and the refund was rescinded. However, the applicant has since contacted this Office, and has informed us that the business was dissolved in 1993, and requests that the initial refund be reissued solely in the applicant’s name. Therefore, we will reissue the check (under Case No. RA272-00084) in the amount of $330 to Mrs. Glenda Van Note.

This Office is in the process of issuing supplemental refunds to all applicants granted refunds in the crude oil proceeding. As we stated in the earlier Decision and Order, when additional crude oil monies became available, meritorious applicants would receive a share of the additional monies.

Since the supplemental per gallon refund amount ($0.0008) is the same as the prior per gallon refund amount, we will also grant Glenda Van Note a supplemental refund of $330. Therefore, Glenda Van Note is entitled to receive a total refund in the amount of $660 ($330 initial refund plus its $330 supplemental refund).

It Is Therefore Ordered That:

(1) The Application for Refund filed by Glenda Van Note on behalf of L.C. Cassidy & Sons of Florida, Case No. RF272-94072, which was approved by DOE on June 2, 1994, E.M.H. of Larsen, et al., Case Nos. RF272-93819 et al., and then rescinded by DOE on October 20, 1999, L.C. Cassidy & Sons of Florida, Case No. RC272-00402, redesignated Case No. RA272-00084, is hereby approved as set forth in Paragraph (3) below.

(2) The supplemental refund filed by Glenda Van Note, Case No. RK272-05564, is hereby approved as set forth in Paragraph (3) below.

(3) 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 $330 for Case No. RA272-00084 and $330 for Case No. RK272-05564 from the DOE deposit fund escrow account maintained at the Department of the Treasury denominated Crude Tracking-Claimants IV, Account No. 999DOE010Z, to Glenda Van Note at the following address:

Mrs. Glenda Van Note

1001 Old Mill Pond Road

Palm Harbor, FL 34683

(4) 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.

(5) This is a final Order of the Department of Energy.
