APPLICATION AND INTENT Sample Clauses

APPLICATION AND INTENT. This Scope Rule does not apply to work on any property not owned or operated by AMTRAK, except when the said Corporation assumes responsibility to maintain such property under a contract or other arrangement. The intent of the exception in the final clause of the preceding paragraph is that in those instances where property is leased by AMTRAK or operated by it under any other type of arrangement, it is the express intent of the parties hereto that the work will be performed by Maintenance of Way Employees and that AMTRAK will use its best efforts in the negotiation of future leases or re-negotiation of current leases to retain the rights to fully maintain and repair said property or properties. This Scope Rule does not apply to work on any property owned by AMTRAK which is leased to a lessee who under the lease assumes responsibility for work on the leased property. Property owned or operated by AMTRAK necessary for the operation of the railroads coming under the Scope of this Agreement will not be leased for the purpose of evading the application of this Agreement. It is not the intent of AMTRAK to use the Scope Rule to divert work covered by this Scope Rule from employees covered thereby, nor the intent of the Brotherhood to demand the assignment of work not covered by this Scope Rule to employees covered thereby. The Work Classification Rules shall not require any change in the existing manner of performance of work involving employees represented by any other Organization (nor shall any claims be presented in connection therewith, as long as there is no change in the existing manner of performance of work), unless the Maintenance of Way Organization and such other Organization agree upon a division of work or have been parties to an arbitration which has resulted in an award or determination as to the division of work which is final and binding on both Organizations. If and when such an agreement, award or determination has been made, AMTRAK shall accept it as an interpretation of the Maintenance of Way Agreements involved. In no event shall AMTRAK be required to accept an agreement, award or other determination herein referred to which requires AMTRAK to use or pay employees represented by the Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees and employees represented by any other Organization for the performance of work for which employees represented by only one Organization are now used.
