Case No. RJ272-00073
October 20, 1999
DECISION AND ORDER
OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Supplemental Order
Name of Petitioner:New VICI, Inc.
Date of Filing: October 6, 1999
Case Number: RJ272-73
On February 15, 1996, the Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) issued a Supplemental Order granting New VICI, Inc., (Case No. RK272-2023) a supplemental refund of $4,034 in the crude oil refund proceeding. Vigoro Industries, Inc., et al., Case No. RK272-01627, et al. The refund check was made payable to New VICI, Inc., and sent in care of Mark Lewis, Plant Manager, to County Rt. 88, Hammondsport, NY 14840. Because the check was not cashed, it was canceled by the U.S. Treasury in accordance with limited payability laws. The OHA has since attempted to contact New VICI, Inc., and Mr. Lewis without success. In view of these circumstances, we have determined that the refund issued to New VICI, Inc. should be rescinded.
It is Therefore Ordered That:
(1) The Decision and Order issued by the DOE on January 22, 1996, Vigoro Industries, Inc., et al., Case No. RK272-01627, et al., is hereby rescinded as to New VICI, Inc., Case No. RK272-1736, redesignated RJ272-73.
(2) Notwithstanding our directive in Vigoro Industries, Inc., et al., Case No. RK272-01627, 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 $4,034 in the escrow fund denominated Crude Tracking-Claimants IV, Account No. 999DOE010Z, maintained at the Department of Treasury.
(3) This is a final Order of the Department of Energy.
