THIS MATTER came before the Marine Employees’ Commission (MEC) on September 28, 1995 when District No. 1, Marine Engineers Beneficial Association (MEBA) filed a request for grievance arbitration.
In its grievance arbitration request, MEBA asserted that William Harpham and Larry Rood were required to travel to work during their shift while their vessel was in the shipyard, but were denied travel time and mileage in conjunction with their scheduled work shift in violation of Section 9(b) and Section 12 of the Licensed Engineers’ Collective Bargaining Agreement.
This matter was docketed as MEC Case No. 18-95. Chairman Henry L. Chiles was assigned to act as arbitrator. A prehearing/settlement conference was scheduled for November 15, 1995; hearing was scheduled for November 29, 1995. At MEBA’s request, the prehearing/settlement conference was rescheduled for December 13, 1995 and the hearing for January 29, 1995.
By facsimile on December 12, 1995, MEBA Business Agent Mark Austin requested the grievance be withdrawn. The prehearing and hearing were canceled.
It is hereby ordered that the request for grievance arbitration filed by MEBA and docketed as MEC Case No. 18-95 is dismissed.
DONE this 15th day of December 1995.
