High Taxes on Continental Award Ticket

I just booked a FD award ticket on Continental from EWR - DFW. Went to the FRA airport and they told me taxes for the one way purely domestic US flight was 76 Euros. That seems overly high when redeeming under any US airlines FF program the taxes are only $5 USD. Anyone know why I had to pay such an excessive amount ?
