                                            Case Nos. 0-NG-1174
 
                   ORDER DISMISSING PETITION FOR REVIEW
 
    This case is before the Authority pursuant to section 7105(a)(2)(E)
 of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute and section
 2424.1 of the Authority's Rules and Regulations on a petition for review
 of negotiability issues filed by the Union.  For the reasons indicated
 below, it has been determined that the Union's petition for review must
 be dismissed.
 
    By Authority letter dated October 9, 1985, the Union was informed
 that processing of its negotiability appeal by the Authority was
 contingent upon compliance with Parts 2424 and 2429 of the Authority's
 Rules and Regulations.  The letter recited that the Union had been
 contacted by telephone on two earlier occasions concerning the nature
 of, and the need to correct certain procedural deficiencies in its
 appeal.  Although the Union had been afforded time in which to comply
 with the Authority's rules of procedure and to complete its petition for
 review, the Union had taken no action to remedy the deficiencies in its
 appeal as of the date of the letter.
 
    As was noted in the Authority's letter, the Union's appeal failed to
 comply with sections 2424.4(a)(1), (2), (3), (4), and 2424.4(b) of the
 Regulations.  The Union was informed of the specific actions it had to
 take to so comply and to complete its appeal, and was granted 13 days in
 which to do so.  The Union was advised that further processing of its
 petition for review was contingent upon compliance with the cited
 provisions of the Authority's rules of procedure and was put on notice
 that failure to comply within the time limit provided could result in
 dismissal of the exception.
 
    The Union has made no submission within the time limit provided.
 Accordingly, and apart from other considerations, the Union's
 application for review is hereby dismissed for failure to comply with
 the Authority's rules of procedure.
 
    For the Authority.
