   Subpart O--Notice of Probable Violation, Remedial Order, Notice of 
            Proposed Disallowance, and Order of Disallowance
 
Sec. 205.199I  Remedies.

    (a) A Remedial Order, a Remedial Order for Immediate Compliance, an 
Order of Disallowance, or a Consent Order may require the person to whom 
it is directed to roll back prices, to make refunds equal to the amount 
(plus interest) charged in excess of those amounts permitted under DOE 
Regulations, to make appropriate compensation to third persons for 
administrative expenses of effectuating appropriate remedies, and to 
take such other action as the DOE determines is necessary to eliminate 
or to compensate for the effects of a violation or any cost disallowance 
pursuant to Sec. 212.83 or Sec. 212.84. Such action may include a 
direction to the person to whom the Order is issued to establish an 
escrow account or take other measures to make refunds directly to 
purchasers of the products involved, notwithstanding the fact that those 
purchasers obtained such products from an intermediate distributor of 
such person's products,

and may require as part of the remedy that the person to whom the Order 
is issued maintain his prices at certain designated levels, 
notwithstanding the presence or absence of other regulatory controls on 
such person's prices. In cases where purchasers cannot be reasonably 
identified or paid or where the amount of each purchaser's overcharge is 
incapable of reasonable determination, the DOE may refund the amounts 
received in such cases directly to the Treasury of the United States on 
behalf of such purchasers.
    (b) The DOE may, when appropriate, issue final Orders ancillary to a 
Remedial Order, Remedial Order for Immediate Compliance, Order of 
Disallowance, or Consent Order requiring that a direct or indirect 
recipient of a refund pass through, by such means as the DOE deems 
appropriate, including those described in paragraph (a) of this section, 
all or a portion of the refund, on a pro rata basis, to those customers 
of the recipient who were adversely affected by the initial overcharge. 
Ancillary Orders may be appealed to the Office of Hearings and Appeals 
only pursuant to subpart H.
