This is in reply to your letter asking us to certify that the
Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has a priority allocation level
of 100 percent of base period use not subject to an allocation
fraction under the motor gasoline allocation regulations.
Under Section 211.103(b)(l) of the Mandatory Petroleum Allocation
Regulations, an allocation level for motor gasoline of 100 percent
of base period use, not subject to the supplier's allocation
fraction, is specifically accorded to Department of Defense use
for essential military and readiness-oriented operations. The CIA.
is part of "governmental use" in a lesser priority category. This
category applies only to the extent that the CIA is a wholesale
purchaser-consumer or bulk purchaser.
If you believe that this secondary priority is a problem for the
CIA we would be pleased to meet with you. Please have amember of
your staff arrange to meet with F. Scott Bush, Assistant Adminis-
trator for Regulations and Emergency Planning in the Department's
Economic Regulatory Administration, to determine the best means of
resolving it. He can be reached at [phone].
