oil violations. See Order Implementing
the MSRP, 51 FR 29,689 (August 20,
1986) (the August 1986 Order).
Under the MSRP, 40 percent of crude
oil overcharge funds will be disbursed
to the federal government, another 40
percent to the states, and up to 20
percent may initially be reserved for the
payment of claims to injured parties.
The MSRP also specified that any funds
remaining after all valid claims by
injured purchasers are paid will be
disbursed to the federal government and
the states in equal amounts.
In April 1987, the OHA issued a
Notice analyzing the numerous
comments received in response to the
August 1986 Order. 52 FR 11737 (April
10, 1987) (April 10 Notice). This Notice
provided guidance to claimants that
anticipated filing refund applications
for crude oil monies under the Subpart
V regulations. In general, we stated that
all claimants would be required to (1)
document their purchase volumes of
petroleum products during the August
19, 1973 through January 27, 1981 crude
oil price control period, and (2) prove
that they were injured by the alleged
crude oil overcharges. Applicants who
were end-users or ultimate consumers of
petroleum products, whose businesses
are unrelated to the petroleum industry,
and who were not subject to the DOE
price regulations would be presumed to
have been injured by any alleged crude
oil overcharges. In order to receive a
refund, end-users would not need to
submit any further evidence of injury
beyond the volume of petroleum
products purchased during the period of
price controls. See City of Columbus
Georgia, 16 DOE ¶ 85,550 (1987).
1. Individual Refund Claims
The amount of money obtained from
the listed firms intended for restitution
of crude oil violations is $1,585,576.76
plus accrued interest. In accordance
with the MSRP, we shall initially
reserve 20 percent of those funds
($317,115 plus accrued interest) for
direct refunds to applicants who claim
that they were injured by crude oil
overcharges. We shall base refunds on a
volumetric amount which has been
calculated in accordance with the
methodology described in the April 10
Notice. That volumetric refund amount
is currently $0.0016 per gallon. See 57
FR 15562 (March 24, 1995). On May 13,
2004, we announced final procedures
for the distribution of the remaining
crude oil overcharge funds held by DOE,
and estimated that the remaining funds
would result in an additional
volumetric refund amount of $0.00072
per gallon. See 69 FR 29300 (May 21,
2004).
VerDate jul<14>2003

Jkt 205001
The filing deadline for refund
applications in the crude oil refund
proceeding was June 30, 1994. This was
subsequently changed to June 30, 1995.
See Filing Deadline Notice, 60 FR 19914
(April 20, 1995); see also DMLP PDO, 60
FR 32004, 32007 (June 19, 1995).
Because the June 30, 1995, deadline for
crude oil refund applications has
passed, no new applications for
restitution from purchasers of refined
petroleum products based on the alleged
(or established) crude oil pricing
violations will be accepted for these
funds. Instead, these funds will be
added to the general crude oil
overcharge pool used for direct
restitution.
2. Payments to the States and Federal
Government
Under the terms of the MSRP, the
remaining 80 percent of the crude oil
violation amounts subject to this
Decision, or $1,268,461 plus accrued
interest, should be disbursed in equal
shares to the states and federal
government, for indirect restitution.
Refunds to the states will be in
proportion to the consumption of
petroleum products in each state during
the period of price controls. The share
or ratio of the funds which each state
will receive is contained in Exhibit H of
the Stripper Well Settlement
Agreement. When disbursed, these
funds will be subject to the same
limitations and reporting requirements
as all other crude oil monies received by
the states under the Stripper Well
Agreement.
Accordingly, we will direct the DOE’s
Office of the Controller to transfer onehalf of that amount, or $634,230 plus
interest, into an interest bearing
subaccount for the states, and one-half
or $634,230 plus interest, into an
interest bearing subaccount for the
federal government.
It is therefore ordered that: The
payments remitted to the Department of
Energy by BPM Ltd., Honeymon Drilling
Co., Intercontinental Oil, Knox Oil,
Pescar Trading, Shepherd Oil, Inc.,
Sierra Petroleum Co., Thriftway Co., and
Western Refining Co. (Robert J. Martin)
will be distributed in accordance with
the forgoing Decision.

Absent a request to be heard in
opposition by the deadline above,
Celerity-SD is authorized to issue

surety, or otherwise in respect of any
security of another person; provided
that such issuance or assumption is for
some lawful object within the corporate

reasonably necessary or appropriate for
such purposes.
The Commission reserves the right to
require a further showing that neither
public nor private interests will be
adversely affected by continued
approval of Celerity-SD issuances of
securities or assumptions of liability.
