In an agreement dated September 22, 1981, The Akron, Canton Ee Youngstown Railroad, an Ohio corporation, was merged into AC&Y Railroad, Inc. (AC&Y), a Virginia corporation. Ch December 24, 1981, with a service date of December 31, 1981, the ICC issued the following NOTICE OF EXEMPTION in Finance Docket No. 29805_

      On December 18, 1981, the Norfolk and Western Railway Company (NW) notified the Commission . that its wholly owned subsidiary, The Akron, Canton and Youngstown Railroad Company (Akron) will merge into AC&Y Railroad, Inc. (AC&Y), a wholly owned subsidiary of NW. AC&Y will be the surviving company, and subsequently it will merge into NW, with NW the surviving company. The transactions 2.^e within the corporate family and come within the exemption described at 49 C.F.R. 1111.5 (c) (3). lne mergers will not result in any change in service levels, operations, or the competitive balance with carriers outside the corporate family. The purpose of the mergers

          is corporate simplification.


          As a ccndition to use the exemption, any Akron and AC&Y employees affected by the merger shall be protected pursuant to New York Dock .r.-Control-Brooklyn Eastern Dist., jo0 I.C.C. b0 2 19 ). '"his rill satisfy the statutory requirements of 49 U.s.C. 10505 (E) (2). (2-aphasis retained)

In a letter dated February 9, 1983, the Carrier submitted

'he following question to an Arbitration Committee established

ru^ruant to Section 1(d) of the January 10, 1962 Merger Protection

Agreec.ent

(a) Does the implementing agreement pro.-tsed b3· the Carrier, attached as Carrier's '.·_,x::_c_t "C" ceet the criteria set forth in Sectic·^· ?

(b) If the answer to (a) is "No", what terms
would be appropriate for application in this particular case?

The Organization responded in two letters both dated

February 24, 1983. In the letter that refers to Carrier's letter of September 24, 1982, and which implies knowledge of Carrier's letter dated February 9, 1983, the Organization wrote, in part, as follows:

          Because of our dispute as to the application and or interpretation of the WJPA and January 10, 1962 Agreement regarding changes proposed in your notice, this is formal notification under the provisions of Section 1(d) of the January 10, 1962 A_reement to refer such dispute to an arbitration co=dttee for decision.


In addition, because of our similar dispute as to the concurrent application of the New York Dock II pursuant to NC Finance Docker NO. 29505, this is also formal notification under the provisions of (Appendix III, Article I) Section 11 of New Fork Dock-II to refer this dispute to an arbitration. committee for decision.

In order for timely and efficient resolution of these disputes, this is to request your agree-ment to refer them to a single consolidated arbitration cc`ittee, rather than two separate cc~ t tees . ..

'ne ltcreement of April 12, 1953, pr eviously referred to, followed.
POSITION OF TIM PARTIES:

                        Organization


          The position of the Organization is as follows:

1. Sections 1(c) and 1(d) of the January 10, 1962 Agreement are applicable to AC&Y employes under Section 2 of that Agreement.
2. Under the June 24, 1964 ICC orders which were consummated on October 16, 1964, the Carrier took into its employment, as of the latter date, all train dispatchers except those of the P. C&Y.
3. Similarly, the Carrier assumed all Train Dispatchers' Agreements as of October 16, 1964, except the one with AMY.
4. The merger Of AC&Y into 1.^.-: is among the possible future merger transactions provided for in Section 2 of the
January 10, 1962 Agreement.'
5. The elimination of the train dispatchin_ office at Akron, Ohio and the transfer or consolidation of th:e work into Ca crier's facility at Brewster, Ohio is a "coordination" within the meaning and intent of Section 2(a) of the WashinEtc-. Job
~ctec:ic:-: AE^ee-ent. -=.e date of hire or promotion is _. relevant to the application of the `VJPA, except as otherwise yrc':ided in Section 7 thereof. The VJ FA, ther efore, applies to all of Carrier's train dispatchers who will be affected by the closing of the Akron, Ohio office and coordinating the operation into Carrier's office in Firewster, Ohio.
6. The Carrier did not take AMY train dispatchers~.ijEo
its employment until December 31, 1981, when the ICC issued a
Notice of Exemption in Finance Docket No. 29805. The merger
between AC&Y and NY was not consummated until January 1, 1982. C
For more than 18 years following October 16, 1964, AC&Y was separately operate . It follows that all AMY train dispatchers affected by Carrier's changes proposed on September 29, 1982, are covered by the provisions of Sections 1 and 2 of the January 10, 1962 Agreement, "including protection based on compensation received (and hours worked) in the twelve calendar month period immediately preceding the month in which affected by such change".
7. It is also the Organization's position that any transfer of train dispatch=ers by reason of the jnr:-AC&Y merger should be defined as "an area within twenty-five (25) miles from an ezploye's point of employment as defined in Section 51(c) of the June 28, 1968 Im=leMenting Agreement which interprets the 1=r=uace in Section (b) of the January 20, 1962 Agreement.
S. Pirther, '''v is the position of the Organization -fat the Cc r_^_Er =ay not l:^ _°_.^ rc.^$graph 5 Of a T:°_ :O: cnC_.L O. i.:1~E: £:cnG:c: taC~ed to the ;,c~l::ar~' _=, 1952 Agreement require a train

C=spatc'her to transfer ;,c ancther job in his craft or class bevenC the sa=e general local=tl· of his point of erploynent on the date affected without consent of his representative. The Carrier may
only transfer work. Any refusal of a representative to agree to
an employe's transfer is not subject to arbitration under Secticb l(c
of the January 10, 1962 Agreement. 1
9. The WW-ACdcY "control" ended December 31, 1981.
The "merger" or AMY Into NW was consummated on January 1, 1982.
The consolidation or the Akron and Brewster facilities is not
taken pursuant to 'control" but rather under the "merger". This
is supported by iCC's order of December 24, 1981, with a service
date of 'December 31, 1981, which required that New York Dock-I1
employe protective conditions be applied. The application of the
benefits in New York Dock-1I is not intended to duplicate those
In the WJFA and in the January 10, 1962 Agreement, "but only that
the protective benefits should be no less favorable to the affected
Train Dispatchers than those provided in any of the arrangements
(=~hss:s retained).
10. Carrier is.reouested to negotiate with the Organization for an implementing agreement concerning t'.^.°_ application o_" the terms tend conditions o: the New York DOQ'~--- ree.:_rezents.
                  Carrier


The.position of the Carrier is as follows:
    v


(a) The protection of benefits afforded by the New York Dock conditions are not applicable "because there is no causal connection between the intended changes and the ICC order approving the merger of the AC&Y into MI for corporate simplification purposes". It was not the 1982 merger of the AC&Y and NW that precipit4ted the consolidation of the Akron and Brewster train. dispatching facilities. This consolidation would have occurred in any event because the Carrier has the right to do so under the January 10, 1962 AEree::ent. This is not a "transaction" within the =easing and coverage of New York Dock-II. ~ The p: oposed
consolidation is soleiv attributable to the conditions of the
Janery 10, 1962 Agreement, v;hich was consun=.aced on October 16,

(b) The operations of AC&Y and hW "have been increasingly
ccc--,=mated since 1964 ". Since 1964 the AC&Y and 1: r.' .have been
c::_^a;.=nG as a single system. This is recognized by ;.he _CC
c,4-er _n Finance Docr:at 2;::01,~ dated DecE=:.er 24, lc°_:. ~'._re,
:.'.= ' ^Opcsed chc-.=es were not con.te-:laced o.^ tci:ell f.::rS::c.':.`. t0
t*-at :CC order.
(c) L--pioyes hired after October 16, 1964, a== not entitled to benefits under the January 20, 1962 Merger Protection Agreement because Section 1(b) limits these benefits to "f-resent
employes" as of January 10, 1962 up to and including October 16',~'
1964. This is so even though the actual merger of AC&Y into NW
a ri
did not take place until January 1, 1982. Those hired after
October 16, 1964 are not "present employes". The consolidation
of the Akron and Brewster dispatching offices was not taken under
the authorization or approval of ICC Finance Docket No. 29805.
(d) Recital Y and Section 2 of the January 10, 1962 Merger Agreement consider the merger of the AC&Y Into NW as a possible transaction. Two other possibilities are contemplated in the language. One is the "control" of the AC&Y acquired by the Ire on October 16, 1964. By the acquisition of the AC&Y c_pital stock, the MW had "control" as provided in the January 10, 9E2 !'.erger lbreement. In the alternative it also "leased" the C%Y =,roperties which has the same effect.
(e) Carrier is under no obligation under any agreement to offer r:JPA protection to affected former AC&Y employes.

DISCUSSION AND OPITffONs
. This decision, including the preliminary statement, the position of the parties, the discussion and opinion, the findings, the award and the implementing agreement is exclusively the work of the neutral me=ber of the Arbitration Committee. Fe alone bears the sole responsibility for all that is herein written; he alone initially reached all of the conclusions and answers to cuestio=.s presented by the parties; he alone prepared the au-and and the implementing agreement. It is his sincere hope that his findings, his award and his implerjenting aF,eement will be acceptable to both parties and that the partisan mernbers o_" the A^titration Cc-==`--ce vill indicate their assent thereto.

dispatching office and the coordination of the same into NW's train dispatching office at Brewster, Ohio, are entitled to protective benefits under Merger Protection Agreement dated January 10, 1962? The answer to that question, after a careful and, exhaustive study of all of the voluminous written data presented by the parties and the oral arguments at the hearing, is "yes". Al1~fo:;mer AC&Y train dispatchers in active service on January 1, 1982 are entitled to protective benefits under the

?;erger Protective Agreement effective January 10, 1952. Item V of the January lO, 1962 Merger Protection

Transmittal letters dated December 11, 1961 and December 18,.1961, from Carrier's Assistant General Counsel to~ NW Senior Vif President John P. Fishwick merely state 'in each case that drafts of labor agreements are enclosed. Presumably, these were preliminary drafts of the Merger Protective Agreement which later became effective January. 10, 1962. In a letter dated December 27, 1961 to Mr. Stuart T. Saunders, NW President, Mr. Fishwick wrote that "Section 2 is to be rewritten in consultation with Mr. Hicket in order to clarify its meaning ... this section is intended to limit employment protection to employees of the N & W, Nickel Plate and Watash and, in addition, the

    Av

C&~ and Pittsburgh West Virginia in the event that the applications under Sections 5(a) are approved". his, says the Carrier, c? ear 1y indicates "that, at the time this language eras drafted, the Carrier uas referring only to its contezp2ated control through =.zeck oi,..-.ership and not to some hypothetical post aer ger transaction as n:-;; contended by the Organization". k-natever the contemplation Or _.:~c.':~ these -letters do not determine the intent of the r-arties. -:':_=-_..re=,:esent no -utual agreement.
          For additional s*wpport, Carrier quotes ^=G= a 2etter

date-` G:tcber 10, 19541, from Mr. rish-,%·ick to the GG.-.era: Cha___ar
G= :.^.° Brother hood of 'Elli;ay Tr ainren wherein 1:.^. 7-4=::'w-CS!,
referring to the Sale item v, states that '·7I:° ap-2icatiC.'l5
referred to relates to stock. control of AMY and lease of P&HVr and the trap actions referred to are 'the transfer of f7abash trace from Canadian Railways to Nickel Plate and the diversion of Nickel passenger trains from LaSalle Street to Dearborn Street. There is nothing in this paragraph which indicates in any way that a separate application is required for either of those transactions (Emphasis retained).
Aside from the fact that this letter is a self serving document, it is significant that the control or AMY is not a "transaction". Oaly the transfer of Wabash traffic and the diversion of Nickel Plate passenger trains are "transactions" which do not require additional applications to the ICC.
Ca..rrier agrees that AC&Y employes are covered under the :;anua^y 10, 1952 Me^ger f:g^eement, but only those who here in active service on October 16, 1964.
Although 1 %'W acquired the capital stock o^ AC&Y on or at-out .Lecember 11, 1961, and the acquisition b:a$ az~roved by t::? ?CC =n F=narice Docket 13o. 21920 on June 24, 1054, t:.e :act is ..'.a~ t::e AviY _rE=?ined a se'arate and dfst=l:ct en:t~t~ '.;ntil

As cu-ner of the AC&Y capital stock, NW obviously had

authority to direct the operation of that railroad as it deemed best to its Interest. It did so, by electing officers of AC&Y who appointed operating personnel to carry out the appropriate orders and directives. It is i=aterial that NW supervisors were
                _ yI1.Yi~. _1i .n~ .n.n.~r

assigned to operate AC&Y facilities or that a single time table was issued. The fact remains that all train dispatchers remained employes,of AC&Y and not of NW. They worked and were paid under the rules of the schedule agreement between AC&Y and ATDA. The loiryt time table was merely a ,joint venture between two rail-GaC

This agreement is signed by Carrier representatives, by the Organization's President and by four (4) General Chairmen, each, representing \tAin dispatchers on the aforementioned railroads.

Not included in this implementing agreement are the

train dispatchers who were working for the AC&Y. The reason is obvious. They .were e.-nployes .of_.i.he_AC&Y.

Carrier states that the distance between the train dispatching offices at Akron and Brewster is 34 miles. It cites precedents wherein The Disputes Committee in Docket No. 18 held that under the WJPA a distance of 48.68 miles did not require a change in residence and Award 421 of Special Board of AdJust=ent ;:o. 6r15 held that a distance o_° 43 c.=las of co=-uting did not

Hut the June 28, 19 Agreement doles dot cover AC&Y train dispatchers for the reasons heretofore stated. AC&Y did not merge into N&W until January 1, 1982 Ts.-enty-five (25) miles may not be a proper and precise definition of "general locality" with respect to former AC&Y train dispatchers. .The parties need to consider the circumstances of the train dispatchers at AC&Y locations to determine an equitable definition.
