 (Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employes PARTIES TO DISPUTE:

STATEMENT OF CLAIM: "Claim of the System Committee of the Brotherhood that:

 (1) The Carrier violated the Agreement when, on May 16, 1985, it assigned other than Track Subdepartment forces to perform right-of-way maintenance work at Two Harbo
(2) As a consequence of the aforesaid violation, the senior furloughed 'B' machine operator in t eight (8) hours of pay at the 'B' machine operator's straight time rate."

 FINDINGS:

 The Third Division of the Adjustment Board upon the whole record and all the evidence, finds that:

 The carrier or carriers and the employe or employes involved in this dispute are respectively carrier and employes within the meaning of the Railway Labor Act as approved June 21, 1934.

 This Division of the Adjustment Board has jurisdiction over the dispute involved herein.

As Third Party in Interest, the Transportation Communications International Union was advised of the pendency of this dispute and filed a Submission with the Division.

 The Organization contends the Carrier assigned employees other than Maintenance of Way forces to remove right-of-way stabilization material from the right-of-way at the approach to Dock 1. The Carrier's response to the initial Claim asserted the Subsequently, the Carrier claimed the material at issue was debris left behind by the contractor who demolished several structures. Notwithstanding, the Organization bases its claim upon Rule 26, Classification of Work, Subsections (f) and (i) set forth below:
 Form 1 Award No. 27806
 Page 2 Docket No. MW-27067
 89-3-86-3-376
 "(f) An employee assigned to the operation of road
 way machines shall constitute a Roadway Machine
 Operator. B&B employees performing B&B work at the
 ore docks will operate machines used in the per
 formance of B&B work, except crane work performed
 by Track Department employees at the ore docks.
 (i) An employee assigned to performance of work in
 connection with construction, maintenance and dis
 mantling of tracks, switches and maintenance of
 roadbed and right-of-way, removal of snow, ice and
 other obstructions shall be classified as a Track
 Laborer."

 The burden of establishing that the material was, in fact, bank or right-of-way stabilization material lies with the Organization. Our review of this record forces this Board to conclude the Organization simply has not met this burden. Furthermore, Rule 26 (f) and (i) is a classification of work Rule which this Board has repeatedly held are not exclusive grants of work to a named classification. See Third Division Award 19921. In conclusion, we find no rule or practice basis to determine the work in question belongs exclusively to Maintenance
