ESTABLISHMENT OF REGULAR ASSIGNMENTS. (a) All passenger service work (including preparatory time, pull-in time, deadhead allowance and/or travel time in connection therewith) assigned from each established Division point, except as provided in Article 4, Section 2(d), that can be combined to provide seven (7) or more hours' work within a spread of nine (9) hours and having a regularity of five (5) or more days each calendar week will be established as regular assignments. An exception to this provision would be assignments involved in the making of recovery time reliefs as shown in Section 14 of this Article. The nine (9) hours spread as herein referred to will not include turn-in. Regular assignments will be on the basis of five (5) days per week and in no case will exceed five (5) days per week. The Authority will designate the off days of regular assignments and establish regular or extra relief assignments composed of off days of regular assignments. Regular work runs may be split only once without the payment of continuous time. A regular work run may not be split after ten (10) hours from initial sign-on time without the payment of continuous time. In the exceptional cases, not to exceed a duration of thirty (30) days, such as the Pomona Fair, assignments may be written which will be an exception to the first paragraph of this Subsection.
