Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 25 / Monday, February 7, 2011 / Notices 6605 

Arbitration Panel Decision 

After hearing testimony and 

reviewing all of the evidence, the panel 

issued its ruling. On issue number one, 

the panel found that the selection 

committee convened in 2006 to select a 

manager for Vending Facility 495 was 

required to determine each candidate’s 

labor percentage for the previous two 

years. 

However, the panel concluded that 

the problem with implementation of the 

2006 rule was that neither the 

Complainant nor the other candidate 

had a labor percentage goal for 2005. In 

order to remedy the two year 

requirement, the selection committee 

decided to apply the Complainant’s and 

the other candidate’s labor goals in 2006 

to their vending facilities in 2005, thus 

providing a labor percentage for the 

two-year period. 

The arbitration panel found that this 

action of the selection committee was 

not patently unfair or an abuse of 

discretion and thus was not in violation 

of state rules and regulations or the Act 

and implementing regulations. 

Regarding issue number two, the 

panel determined that the record 

reflected complaints about the 

successful candidate’s performance at 

prior facilities. However, the evidence 

heard by the panel did not indicate that 

the SLA or any of its staff arbitrarily 

removed documentation from the 

successful candidate’s file or failed to 

submit records in his vending operator 

file to the selection committee. Thus, 

based upon testimony of the selection 

committee members that they were 

aware of the successful candidate’s 

problems at prior facilities, the 

arbitration panel ruled that the 

successful candidate’s problems 

occurred several years earlier and his 

lack of problems and his improvement 

over recent years merited the level of 

scoring that he received from the 

selection committee. 

Concerning issue number three, the 

panel found that there was no dispute 

that the grantor of Vending Facility 495 

did not serve on the selection 

committee. Based on the evidence heard 

by the panel, the grantor was contacted 

via e-mail by the SLA and indicated that 

he believed he was invited to serve on 

the selection committee, but the grantor 

did not recall why he did not attend. 

The Complainant interpreted the 

grantor’s lack of attendance to mean that 

the grantor was not invited by the SLA 

to participate on the selection 

committee in violation of the OAC. 

However, the panel in considering the 

hearing record as a whole determined 

that the Complainant did not meet his 

minimum burden of proof on this issue. 

Finally, regarding issue number four, 

the panel found no violations of the Act, 

implementing regulations under the 

Act, or the state rules and regulations. 

Thus, the panel denied Complainant’s 

grievance. 

The views and opinions expressed by 

the panel do not necessarily represent 

the views and opinions of the 

Department.
