     Subject: (status of-Strategic Petroleum Reserve
               Activities-October 1980 (EMD-81-24)

     This is the second in a series of monthly reports
reR uested by certain members of the Senate Committee on
En rgy and Natural Resources and the House Committee on
In 1erstate and Foreign Commerce on the administration's
activ4ties to implement title VIII of the Energy Security
Ac'. )(See encl. II for the July 23, 1980, letter requesting
th se reviews.) Title VIII requires the President to resume
fi ling the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) at an average
ra e of at least 100,000 barrels per day for fiscal year
19 1 and succeeding years. Title VIII also requires the
Pr sident to amend the Department of Energy's (DOE's)
eniitlement regulations so that the Gov nment, in effect,
pays lower tier prices for SPR crude oil  Our first report
on the status of SPR activities (EMD-80-I27, Sept. 23, 1980)
stated that, as of September 5, 1980, the administration
appeared to be making a concerted effort to comply with these
title VIII requirements, although most of its attention was
directed to the minimum supply requirements.

     This second report discusses the administration's
activities taken between September 5, 1980, and October 17,
1900, to fill the SPR. Enclosure I presents additional
de tails on

     --the results of the August 1980 competitive exchange of
       SPR oil,
