Decision List No. 97
Week of August 3 Through August 7, 1998
Refund Application
ENRON CORP./MAPCO, INC., 8/3/98, RF340-149
DOE granted a refund to MAPCO, Inc. (MAPCO) in the Enron
Corporation (Enron) special refund proceeding. DOE concluded that
MAPCO's NGL purchases were not discretionary in nature, and were
dictated by the firm's need to supply its regular customers and
maintain the flow of product in its pipeline system. However, DOE
excluded purchases of ethane because they were insufficiently
documented. DOE also excluded certain quantities of natural gasoline
that appear to have been purchased pursuant to a fixed price contract.
DOE then found that MAPCO had shown that it was injured by its
purchases of propane from Enron to some extent, but limited the firm's
refund to approximately 85.5% of its full volumetric refund for that
product.
