Case No. RF304-15540

May 17, 2001

DECISION AND ORDER

OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Supplemental Order

Name of Petitioner: ARCO/Bob’s Arco Service

Date of Filing: November 18, 1993

Case No.: RF304-15540

On June 23, 2000, the Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) issued a Decision and Order Granting refunds to four applicants in the ARCO proceeding. See Atlantic Richfield Company/Yesko’s Arco et al., (Case Nos. RF304-14643 et al.). In that Decision, The DOE granted Robert P. Holub, owner of Bob’s Arco Service, Case No. RF304-15267, a refund of $820 ($343 in principal plus $477 in interest) for his purchases of petroleum products. Subsequently, a check for $565.80 ($820.00 refund minus $254.20 withheld for taxes) was sent to the last known address of Robert P. Holub. However, this refund check made payable to Bob’s Arco Service was returned as undeliverable, and was cancelled by the Department of the Treasury and credited to the Department via the Limited Payability Cancellation. The OHA has since attempted to contact the applicant without success. In view of these circumstances, we have determined that the refund granted to Bob’s Arco Service should be rescinded.

It Is Therefore Ordered That:

(1) The Decision and Order issued by the DOE on June 23, 2000, Atlantic Richfield Company/Yesko’s Arco Service, et al., Case Nos.RF304-14643 et al., is hereby rescinded as to Bob’s Arco Service, Case No. RF304-15267, redesignated as RF304-15540.

(2) Notwithstanding our directive in Atlantic Richfield Company/Yesko’s Arco, et al., the Team Leader, Special Accounts Team, Office of Financial Control and Reporting, of the Department of Energy shall deposit the funds in the amount of $565.80 in the escrow fund denominated DOE Product Tracking-Claimants No. 999DOE035Z, maintained at the Department of the Treasury.

(3) This is a Final Order of the Department of Energy.
