OSHRC Docket No. 89-0862

DIRECTION FOR REVIEW AND ORDER

The parties in the above-cited action entered into a Settlement Agreement dated May 9, 1990 which was received by the Commission's Atlanta office on May 11, 1990. On May 15, 1990, Administrative Law Judge Paul L. Brady issued an Order approving the said Settlement Agreement. That Order was docketed with the Commission on May 21, 1990. On May 23, 1990, Respondent filed a Motion for Relief from Clerical Mistakes.

Based on an examination of the official record, and pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 661(j) and Rule 92(a), 29 C.F.R. § 2200.92(a), the aforementioned Order is directed for review.

In the Settlement Agreement, the parties withdraw other than Serious Citation 2, Items 1(a), (b) and (c), with the withdrawal of the said Items 1(b) and (c) conditioned upon certain actions which Respondent has taken or is in the process of taking. See Paragraphs I(a) and III(b). The aforesaid Judge's Order, however, states that Citation 2 is affirmed, without reference to the amendments agreed to by the parties. Accordingly, Respondent's Motion for Relief is granted and the order is modified to read as follows;

4. Citation No. 2, as amended, is hereby affirmed.

WHEREFORE, with the modification noted above, the Judge's Order approving the Settlement Agreement is affirmed.
