Case No. RJ272-00095 August 19, 2002 DECISION AND ORDER OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Supplemental Order Name of Petitioner:George E. Batchelor Date of Filing: August 9, 2002 Case Number: RJ272-00095 On May 21, 1998, the Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) issued a Decision and Order granting a refund of $60 to George E. Batchelor in the Department of Energy's Subpart V crude oil refund proceeding. See Annco Partnership, et al., Case No. RK272-01912 (May 21, 1998). The refund check was made payable to George E. Batchelor, and sent to 5637 97th Way N., St.Petersburg, FL. 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 Mr. Batchelor without success. In view of these circumstances, we have determined that the refund issued to Mr. Batchelor should be rescinded. It Is Therefore Ordered That: (1) The Decision and Order issued by the DOE on May 21, 1998, to George E. Batchelor, Case No. RK272-01912, is hereby rescinded, and redesignated as RJ272-00095. (2) Notwithstanding our directive in Annco Partnership, et al., the Team Leader, Financial Control Team, of the Department of Energy shall deposit the funds in the amount of $60 in the escrow fund denominated Crude Tracking-Claimants IV, Account No. 999DOE010Z, maintained at the Department of Treasury. | |
