Western Region General Chairman Tim
Donnigan unveiled the Idaho Schedule Re-write Project to the delegates at
the WRGCA Convention in Sun Valley. Then later announced that he would not
seek another term due to unforeseen health issues. The
longest standing Idaho General Chairman takes with him the knowledge, history and
experience of the WRGCA and he will be greatly missed. Those of us who
worked closely with Tim know that we have lost a very important part of the
Brotherhood, but know that at this point in Brother Tim's life it's not
about us, but about his well being. We wish Brother Donnigan the absolute
very best and want him to know that he will be in our thoughts and prayers. Godspeed Brother. |

new Idaho Schedule of Agreements in effect
July 1, 2008. WRGCA
General Chairman Tim Donnigan in
conjunction with UP Labor Relations have completed a schedule re-write of
the previous 30 year old 1977 Idaho Schedule. The undertaking took over 2
years to complete and has became a realization for the benefit of all
engineers working in the territories covered under the Idaho CBA which
encompass Salt Lake Hub and Portland Hubs Zones 1, 2, and 3. The General
Chairman thanked Labor Relations officers Alan Weed and Lucy Ruf for their
endeavors in seeing this important re-write through to completion. The
details of mass printing of the Schedule for the membership is still in the
process of being finalized and should be in the printing stage very shortly.
After the printing process is completed copies will be sent to each
Divisions Local Chairman for distribution to their respective members. The
good news is that the document is now totally electronic so the membership
need not wait for printing to view or download the 2008 Idaho Schedule. Due
to the Schedule being an electronic document, at this point in time security
measure have been installed thereby, the document may only be viewed on
Acrobat
Reader 8.0 (which is a free download) and has been uploaded to the WRGCA
website as 'read only'.
