                          STATT3MENT OF THE CASE.


    ' Fifty-taro (52) R-44 cars were delivered to Carrier by

          the St. Louis Car Division of General Steel Industries,'Inc.


          . Thereafter, Road Car Inspectors discovered a growing

          number of failures in support beams. St. Louis Car determined

          that the undercarriage support system for converters, inverters,

    ' compressors and related air-conditioning components failed to

          meet contractual requirements for structural integrity. Be

          cause of the potential danger of derailment, St. Louis Car

          advised that corrective retro-fit work would be undertaken

          immediately, without charge, under its basic warranty.


      _ When Carrier discussed the matter with local officials _

        ' of the Organizations, in mid-August, 1974, those officials

- disputed the propriety of Carrier's action; which continued _.
          dispute included a threatened work stoppage, appeals to the

          National Mediatiox: Board, etc. Finally, at approximately

      -. 5:00 a.m., October 17, 1974, the Organizations did walk-out -

        - and established picket lines on Carrier's property,.


          Upon application by Carrier, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York issued.a Temporary Restraining Order. Thereafter, the Caurt ordered that a Special Board. of Adjustment be created, and the dispute be submitted to said Board.


              - The Court noted:


                t'For the purposes of this stipulation, ii; is understood that the dispute herein is a minor dispute. concerning whether the performance of warranty work by the St. Louis Car Co. on SIRTOA property violates the Agreement of September 25, 1961E and the Supplementary Agreements of March 27 and March 28, 1974 between the parties hereto."


          The National Mediation Board appointed the undersigned Neutral to this Board for the purpose of "...resolving the question of whether the performance of warranty work ...on SIRTOA property violates..." the Agreements.


                                    2.

                          OPINION OF BOARD


        Tlie record before us refers to (1) "warranty" work, (2) work which was incidental to the "warranty" work, (3) "warranty" and incidental work being performed on Carrier's property, and, of course, (4) damages, if a violation is ;round.


        We note, at the outset,, that St. Louis Car's performance of warranty work, per se, is not before us as an alleged violation. .


            At Page 3 of the IBEIT Submission, we note:


            "The Carrier has taken the position that the work is ;'warranty work"; we told them that we are not claiming the warranty work which was the structural support systems..."


            . Moreover, at Page 5 of the IAM Submission, we note: '


            "Significantly, neither the IAD3 nor the other union's representative have claimed or are claiming now that they should .perform the warranty work although such

      . work would be.violative of the contract if performed.

              on SIRTOA's property by persons out::idc the bargain

              ing unit."


' The Organizations do, however, claim work incidental to
    _ the -warranty work For instance, the IAM states:


        . ', :'Rather, the IAM claims the right to perform work

            . such as' dismantling which must first be performed.

              before the parts under warranty may be repaired.11


              'Flie "IBELV states:


            "We do claim the Electrical work which was necessary . for the warranty work to be performed."


        Carrier argues that St. Louis Car insisted that it perform all work incidental to the warranty work as part of its guarantee, and that no charge was, made for that work.' While the record is not entirely clear'in'this regard, it appears that this insistance was brought to the attention of the Organizations in the early stages of the dispute. Among other defenses, Carrier notes that it is not required to "bifurcate", or minutely subdivide the work (see Award No. 109, Special Board No. 570)9 and that cost factors .are a basis for contracting of work under,Article II, Section 1(5)

          of the September 25, 19611 Agreement.

If this Board -were confined solely to the 19611 Agreement, it could concede that Carrier's defenses are persuasive, especially under. Article II, Section 1(5) mentioned above. But, this Board's review is not so confined. We may not avoid a thorough review of the March 27, 1974 (IBEW) and March 28, 1974 (IA Agreements. Paragraph 3 states:

' "No outside contractors or other persons except em
ployces of SIRTOA represented by the /IBLW'//IAM/ shall
pel~form any /electrical //machinists/ work, including
work connected with the component parts, listed above,
on the property of SIRTOA." .

The Organizations urge that even though Carrier may have been entitled to have certain warranty work performed by outside concerns, the above cited language precludes the performance of the warranty work, or the incidental work, on the property of Carrier.

Carrier urges that its action was proper because St. Louis Car is not an outside contractor (because it was performing warranty work) and that there has not been a showing that the _ work. in question. was "electrical" work or "machinist" work. We do not concur with Carrier's position.

Although the March, 19711 Agreements recite that "all other" provisions of the 19611 Agreement remain in effect, this Board concludes that Paragraph 3 contains a broad prohibition against outside contractors and other persons performing work on the property. For instance, we note that the March, 1974 Agreements allow contracting out concerning certain component parts. Thereafter, Paragraph 3 specifically precludes work concerning those same component parts from being pcrforaied by outside concerns or other persons, on Carrier's property. Thus, we do not agree with Carrier's contention that St. Louis Car is not an "outside contractor" as that term is used in the Agreement, merely because it is performing warranty work. Even if St.' Louis Car is not an "outside contractor", its employees would certainly appear to be "other persons a-xcept employees of SIRTOA represented..." by the Organizations. We conclude that the cited language, by its own terms, restricted Carrier from having certain work performed on its property; although that.worlc could be performed away from the property:

Ire do not minimize Carrier's contention that the Organizations must show that the work in question is electrical and machinist 'work. But, as we review the specific provisions of the two March, 1974 Agreements, and the general classification rules, we are unable to conclude that the work performed by St. Louis Car is not electrical and machinist work, in part, even though there has not been a lengthy history of work in this regard.
` Finally, we turn to the question of damages. The United
        States District Court for the Eastern District of New York

        ordered: '


            "That the Board is specifically authorized, should it so decide, to provide a remedy for the alleged breach of the collective bargaining agree-

    . ment to either party whose position it sustains. -

            The'remedy may include, but not be limited to,

            monetary damages to the prevailing party should

            the majority of the Board so decide."


        Carrier has demonstrated that all employees were fully employed during the material period, and urges that since no employee was adversely effected, no award of damages is appropriate. The Organizations counter by arguing that numerous Awards have adhered to the "loss of work opportunity" concept, and have awarded damages even though the employees were fully

.' employed. The undersigned Neutral served as Referee with the
        Third Division of the National Railroad Adjustment Board in

        Award 19899. That Award traced much of the history of damage

        awards in the Railroad Industry, and (citing Brotherhood of

        _Rai.lroad ~igna7.men v. Southern Railway Company, 3130 F 2d 59

        .,, (CA 11?) concluded that damages are properly awarded notwithstanding a "full employment" situation, as long as the claim is not speculative. .


. However, this Board is not inclined to award damages
        concerning the "warranty" work perfcx;::_d on SIRTQA' trope--ty.

        While we have found that Paragraph 3 of the March, 1974 Agree

        ments pr9hibited Carrier from having that work performed on

        the property; nonetheless, the record and the Submissions to

        this Board are singularly clear that such a claim for monetary

        damages was never presented to the Carrier =while the matter .

. was handled on the property. - As cited above, the IBEW states,
        "...We told them that -,,To are not claiming the warranty work."

        Moreover, although IAM noted that performance of warranty

        work would be violative of the contract if performed on SIRTOA's

        property, that conclusion was immediately preceded by the state

        meat, " ..neither the IAM nor the other union's representative

        have claimed or are claiming now that they should perform war

        ranty work."


        'Thus, under this record, we will not award damages concerning the performance of warranty.work. It should be noted that this Award is a case of first impression concerning the prohibitions of Paragraph 3 of the March, 1971, Agreements and is, of course, limited to the record before the Board. Of necessi.t~>, zse may not attempt to outline a precedcntial analysis concerning future records in disputes not now before us.


        A damage award concerning "incidental" work performed on SIRTOA's property is not similarly controlled. In that regard,

' STATEDM1\TT OF CASE
On December 5, 1974, Special Board of Adjustment No. _
        $39 issued its OPINION, FINDINGS and AtaRDS concerning the

        claims submitted to it, and heard,. on November 18, 1974.


            In the December 511974 OPINION and AWARD, the Board -

        . noted that it had been established pursuant to an Order of the United States District Court for the Eastern District ' of New York, and that said Court had stated:


          - .!!That the,Board.is,specifically anthorized,

            should it so decide, to provide a remedy for the

            alleged breach of the collective bargaining agree- -

            ment to either party whose position it sustains.

            The remedy may include, but not be.limited to, -

            monetary damages to the prevailing party should

            the majority of the Board so decide."'


        Special Board of Adjustment No. 839 determined, in its December_5,-1974 OPINION, FINDINGS and AWARD:


          ..,., .,!'.Accordingly, we .will sustain the claim;

          solely as it relates to the performance of work

          by St. Louis. Car.whichwas not directly related

          to,,the.r.etro-fit ,warranty work, but rather,, was

      Electrical work or Machinist work -which eras necessary for tile warranty work to be performed, such as work connected with removal and replacing of the component parts. While an award of damages at overtime rates may be appropriate under certain circumstances, 'we find no basis for such an Award under this record." Thus, the claim is sustained to the extent that Carriipr shall pay straight time

- rates for all time consumed by St. Louis Car while
      performing work incidental to warranty work, as

      discussed above. The matt., will. be remanded to

      the parties for a deVerenination of the specific

      amounts duct' and this Board shall retain JUri.S

      diction to resolve aril- dis ~~ites between ttie parties

      concerning the amounts due." underscoring supplied)


      Finally, the December 5, 1974 AWARD stated:


      1°1. Carrier violated the March 27 and March 28, -

          1974 Agreements when it permitted individuals,

          other than employees of-the Carrier represented

- by the Organizations, to perform electrical
        - work and machinist work on the property of

        Carrier. -


          2. Claims for monetary damages are denied insofar as they relate to "warranty" work performed on the property of Carrier.


          Claims for monetary damages,' at the straight time rate, are sustained insofar as they relate to electrical and machinist wor, incidental to the warranty work, performed on the property of the Carrier, as discussed in the Opinion of the Board, above."


Subsequent to reasonable notification to all parties, Special Board of Adjustment No. 839 reconvened on March 19, 1975 for the purpose of resolving a dispute between the parties concerning specific monetary amounts due.

On April 15, 1975, the Board met, in Executive Session, to adopt this Supplement to Award No. 1.

                  STATEMENT OF FACTS


On 'December 16, 1974, Counsel to the Organizations ad
vised the Board that Carrier refused to discuss any dispute
concerning amounts of damages due; and requested the Board
to reconvene, under its retained jurisdiction, to issue a
final Award, supplementing Award No. 1. (See Board Exhibit
#19 attached hereto). - -

                          2.

On December 20, 1971', Carrier disputed this Board's authority to take any further action. (See Board Exhibit ,//2, attached hereto).

On December 23, 1974, Counsel to the Organizations renee,ed the request that the Board resolve the question of amounts of damages due. (See Board Exhibit ;f3, attached hereto)..

On January 3, 1975, the'Chairman of the Board concurred that it uas " ..appropriate to reconvene the Board to con-. sider the question of the specific amount of damages due." (see Board Exhibit m4, attached hereto), and on February 7, 1975% proposed that the Board reconvene at 1:00 p.m. on March 199 3975. (See Board Exhibit #5, attached .hereto).

No request for postponement or suggested alternate date to reconvene was received by the Board.

The Board met at 1:00 p.m. on March 19, 1975, at the offices of the National Railroad Adjustment Board, Chicago, Illinois. Although the Chairman and the Organization members were present, no representative of the Carrier was present. The Board considered written evidence (see Exhibits #r69 ;#7, T/$ and #9, attached hereto) and oral statements, under oath, concerning the question of damages due under,Award No. 1 of, this Special. Board of Adjustment.-,.

At the conclusion of the March 19, 1975 Hearing; the Board members present agreed to meet in Executive Session, on April 15, 1975, at the offices of the National Mediation Board, Washington, D. C. for purposes of adopting an Award concerning damages. On March 21 , 1975, the Chairman of the Board so advised the Carrier members of the Board, and in%rIted and urged their attendance. (See Attachment A).

By copy of April 7, 1975 letters to Carrier members, . the Chairman of this Board became aware that the Carrier members had been relieved from all further duties and responsibilities concerning this Board.. (See Attachments B and C).

The Board-met, in Executive Session, in Washington, D.C. o'a April 15, 1975, and adopted this Supplement to Award No. 3. cbf SPECIAL BOARD OF ADJUST2NLENT .NO. f339.

                  OPINION OF BOARD


The Order of*the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, cited, in part, above, gave this Board of Adjustment broad authority in fashioning a remedy for breaches of the Agreements in question.

                          30

The Organizations save presented evidence of amounts due within the dictates of Award No. 1 of this 13o:ird. That evidence consisted of tabulating the number of man hosirs consumed by St. Louis Car while' performing work incidental to warr<zsnty work. .

The evidence fails to suggest that either Organization overstated the number of man hours involved, as their claims are based upon the amounts of work in questibn. Moreover, although Carrier had full knowledge of the proceedings, and ample opportunity to present any evidence it so desired, it failed to do so. Under those circumstances, we would dismiss the Organization's evidence only if it were obviously inflated or incredible. We are unable to make such a determination under this record.

The IBEW has demonstrated 903 hours at the contractual rate of 66.13 for a total of Five Thousand Five Hundred and Thirty-five Dollars and thirty-nine cents (65,535-39)...

The IAM has demonstrated 580 hours at the contractual, rate of ,66.13 for a total of Three-Thousand Five Hundred and Fii~ty-five Dollars and forty cents (63,555·40).

The claims sought compensation for the employees at Clifton Shop. The.If3EW has demonstrated that twenty-one (21) employees were so employed during the applicable period. Those employees are designated on Board Exhibit t`,`-8 (attached hereto) as Electricians and Temporary Electricians. The IAM has demonstrated that eleven (11) employees here so employed during the applicable period. Those employees-are designated on Board Exhibit ,99 (attached hereto)-as Machinists and Temporary 1·lachinfists.

                      FINDINGS


Upon a consideration of the entire record, this Board finds that:

      This Board has jurisdiction of the dispute.'


      The parties herein are Carrier and Employees within the meaning of the Railway Labor Act, as amended.


      All parties received due notice. of hearing.

Re: IB09, System Council No. 12

Dear Mr. Sickles:

IAA 5. ROOM.N5

' CUUN'lEL

The hoard issued by the System Board contained the following statement in the last sentence of the Board Opinion:

"The matter will be remanded to the parties for a determination of the specific amounts due, and this Board shall retain jurisdiction to resolve any disputes between the parties concerning the amounts due."

We have been..advised by counsel to the carrier that it has no intention of discussing or resolving. any dispute concerning the amounts due pursuant to the ophion or the Award.

Under these circumstances, therefore, we request that the Board reconvene as soon as possible with the purpose of issuing a final Award supplementing Award No..1, determining the amounts due to the employees represented by the IAM and IBESI. The Award should state that this represents the Board°s final judgment on this matter.
Mr. Joseph A. Sickles -2-. 'December 16, 1974

We would appreciate it if the Board could act with reasonable dispatch so that the matter may be concludede

    . . "Very truly yours,

Dear Mr. Sickles:

T have received a copy of the letter to you dated December 20, 1974, from John G. .de Roos, general counsel of SIRTOA.

We do not believe that Mr. de Roos.is correct in determining that the Special Board of Adjustment "has no authority to take any further action in this matter." We renew our request that the Board proceed as expeditiously as possible to resolution of_the amount of damages to which our clients are entitled.

We regard your Award 11 as establishing liability and believe your subsequent proceedings are-in the nature of an inquest consistent with that Award.

Gentlemens

I have considered the various recent correspondence con-
cerning the request by tho Organization Members to reconvene rite Board concerning a specific Av:ard of Dacaayes.

The Order of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Piety York teas quite broad in Paragraph g concerning the Board's authority to provide a remedy for a broach of the Agreement.

In the view of the undersigned, obviously concurred in by the Organization -Members of the Board, the hoard had authority to request the parties to detex-tainc the specific artoiznts duo and retain jurisdiction to resolve ally disputes bettreexa tile parties concerning a::otztzts dttn.

I. tutderstand, from the correspondence, that the Carrier has refused to meet t.ith the Organizations in this re.-.trd. Accordingly, I fool it appropriate to r CCOi1VCI1C the hoard to consider the question of the specific ar..ount of datuagcs duo.

Pioreovor, Z find nothing in the National Modiation Board's letters of appointment and authority which would restrict a reconvening of the Board.
