                                        - 7 -                                         
               Each day, petitioner’s employees were supposed to measure by           
          dipstick the amount of diesel fuel on hand and record this number           
          on the month’s MIR.  Steve relied on the MIR’s although he did              
          not supervise the actual recording of the readings.  The                    
          photocopy MIR’s submitted at trial are poor quality copies of the           
          original handwritten sheets.  The combination of the handwriting            
          and poor copy quality make many of the entries on the MIR’s                 
          ambiguous.                                                                  
               The monthly totals of metered sales from the MIR’s are shown           
          in table 1.
