               A comparison of tables 1, 2, and 3 shows that (1) Steve’s              
          March 5 letter matches the DSR’s for each of the 5 months                   
          February through June 1990, and (2) the DSR for January 1990                
          shows 92,583 fewer gallons than Steve’s March 5 letter and 7,174            
          gallons more than the MIR for January 1990.                                 
               D.  Purchase Logs                                                      
               Petitioner’s records include handwritten logs of diesel fuel           
          purchases, hereinafter sometimes referred to as Purchase Logs.              
          The Purchase Logs were kept on a monthly basis and include                  
          columns labeled “date”, “check date”, “check number”, “invoice              
          number”, “company name”, “diesel gal.”, “gas gal.”, and “amount”.           
          The Purchase Logs were maintained by petitioner’s employees under           
          Steve’s supervision.  Petitioner’s records include a Purchase Log           
          for each month from July through November 1989.  The Purchase               
          Logs for December 1989 through June 1990 may have been                      
          confiscated by California authorities under a search warrant.               
               Petitioner did not explain what date was recorded in the               
          “date” column.  The dates in the date and check date columns are            
          not chronological.  Rather, the entries in the Purchase Logs are            
          organized sequentially by check number.  Some of the entries do             
          not match the corresponding records.  For instance, invoice 96087           
          is recorded in the Purchase Log as having been the purchase of              
          6,087 gallons of diesel fuel, while the corresponding check shows           
          the purchase of 7,559 gallons of diesel fuel.
