Decision List No. 85; Week of May 11 Through May 15, 1998 Appeal Cincinnati Gas & Electric Co., 5/11/98, VEA-0008 The Office of Hearings and Appeals considered an Appeal filed by Cincinnati Gas & Electric Company (CG&E) from a determination issued on December 8, 1997, by the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EE) of the Department of Energy (DOE), under provisions of 10 CFR Part 490 (Alternative Fuel Transportation Program). In its determination, EE partially granted a request by CG&E to receive credits under the Part 490 program for certain 1997 Model Year vehicles which the firm converted to alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs), but not within four months after acquisition as required under 10 CFR 490.305(c). EE granted relief for such vehicles converted by CG&E on or before August 31, 1997. However, in its Appeal, CG&E sought additional credits for such vehicles (30) converted by the firm during the period September through December 1997. After considering evidence presented by CG&E concerning delays encountered by the firm in acquiring AFV conversion equipment, the DOE determined that CG&E's Appeal should be granted in part. Accordingly, the DOE granted CG&E credits under the Part 490 program for 17 of the 30 converted AFVs subject to its Appeal.
