(Boilerplate MOA)

(Safety Committee MOA)

(ZID/SOC SSC Interim Workload Transition MOA)

Participated in a pretty good Council meeting the week of 12/17/01 also held PASS Representative training after the meetings which Chapter 126 Louis Ratliff and PASS Region 1 RVP Ron Medeiros sponsored. Ron and Maureen were in attendance at the council meeting and gave an overview of a Regional MOA to address mandatory half hour lunch periods. Which we hope soon will be signed and there will be no more mandatory lunch periods for safetly related positions. As soon as I receive additional information I will post it here.

A DLT meeting was held in Indianapolis the week of 2/28/02, I was unfortunate enough to contract that nasty flu virus that was going around that week and missed all but the last day. Ken Miller was there however and he thought the meeting was very informative, lots of candor, honesty, and clarification on several subjects. Meeting minutes click below:

Held a very productive meeting with XOA management 11/29/01 Click here to view meeting minutes:

We resolved comments and reached a Collaboration Agreement with XOA/SMO management on 11/29/01. Hopefully this document and the intent behind it will be the way management and the union will conduct business, if not, we always have other methods to achieve fairness and equitability with the agency.

First year in review a letter from the XOA/SMO Rep and Assistant SMO Rep. Click below to view the letter:

Held an Eboard meeting on 11/05/01 which I believe was very productive and collaborative. Click below to view the meeting minutes:

The following MOA's and agreements have been reached concerning FY-2002 POC and ZID/ARTCC Functional Alignment. The FY-02 POC reflects the authorized positions within the SMO for FY-02 but the union considers these levels as the base not a limit. We continue to point out these position levels provide minimal coverage when you consider they are only 60-70 percent of what truely is required by the agencies own staffing standards.

Great Lakes Region DLT was held 8/25-8/27 meeting minutes are posted below. I can tell you that it was another very good meeting and we are still pleased with the Division leadership and direction. I also had a chance to meet with some PASS members from the O'Hare area and really appreciated the invite to their union meeting and their insight on a wide range of issues. THANKS 106 !!!

Several resolutions have been agreed upon and are located below. XOA/PASS has committed to trying this collaborative process once again and are close to reaching an agreement that will address this commitment on both sides. Hopefully we can get it done this time with management meeting us halfway.
