                Disputes Between New Jersey Transit Rail and Certain of 
                Its Employees Represented by Certain Labor 
                Organizations

                Disputes exist between New Jersey Transit Rail and 
                certain of its employees represented by certain labor

                these disputes are designated on the attached list, 
                which is made part of this order.

                The disputes have not heretofore been adjusted under 
                the provisions of the Railway Labor Act, as amended, 45 
                U.S.C. 151-188 (RLA).

                A party empowered by the RLA has requested that the 
                President establish an emergency board pursuant to 
                section 9A of the RLA (45 U.S.C. 159a).

                Section 9A(c) of the RLA provides that the President, 
                upon such request, shall appoint an emergency board to 
                investigate and report on the disputes.

                NOW, THEREFORE, by the authority vested in me as 
                President by the Constitution and the laws of the 
                United States, including section 9A of the RLA, it is 
                hereby ordered as follows:

                Section 1. Establishment of Emergency Board (Board). 
                There is established, effective 12:01 a.m. eastern

                members to be appointed by the President to investigate 
                and report on these disputes. No member shall be 
                pecuniarily or otherwise interested in any organization 
                of employees or any carrier. The Board shall perform 
                its functions subject to the availability of funds.

                Sec. 2. Report. The Board shall report to the President 
                with respect to the disputes within 30 days of its 
                creation.

                Sec. 3. Maintaining Conditions. As provided by section 
                9A(c) of the RLA, for 120 days from the date of the 
                creation of the Board, no change in the conditions out 
                of which the disputes arose shall be made by the 
                parties to the controversy, except by agreement of the 
                parties.

                Sec. 4. Records Maintenance. The records and files of 
                the Board are records of the Office of the President 
                and upon the Board's termination shall be maintained in 
                the physical custody of the National Mediation Board.
