Dear Dom:

Supervisor Mc Corquodale's motion regarding the proposed
odd-even gasoline distribution program included a plan for

implementation on a mandatory basis when allocation percent
ages reach 851.

We would like further clarification of specifically what must

occur in the marketplace for the odd-even plan to be imple

mented.

Allocation fractions for the major brand refiners

for March and April are as follows:
March
Chevron
Shell
Mobil
Union

Arco
Texaco
Exxon

100%
95%
100%

100%
95%
90%
100%

April
WSl
85%
95%
95%
95%
85%
95%

Two of the majors are already at 85% (Shell § Texaco) and we

are expecting Chevron to be at 85% on May 1, 1979. Will the
odd-even plan be implemented at that time or do we wait for
all companies to reach 85% or less?
Very Trul

You

Hay
Executive Director
