The Disputed Dockside Sample Clauses

The Disputed Dockside. Reefer Work at T6 To preserve their contents, certain commodities passing through a marine terminal must be shipped in refrigerated con- tainers. The carriers own or rent all of the containers, including the reefers. The determination as to whether a commodity must be transported in a reefer is one made between the shipper and the carrier. When a reefer is required, the shipping documents will in- clude the specified temperature and ventilation settings. After the shipping documents are complete, the carrier books the ventilation settings specified in the shipping documents must be maintained throughout the reefer’s transit. Reefers arrive at T6 by truck, train, or barge.

However, when reefers arrived at the terminal on a container ship or were loaded onto a ship for transport, long- shore workers represented by Local 8 boarded the ship and performed the plugging and unplugging work. Hence, one employee group (Local 48 electricians) has historically per- formed the dockside reefer work while the other group (Local 8 xxxxxxxxx workers) performed the identical work aboard ships berthed at T6. When a truck carrying a “live” (refrigerated) export load en- ters the terminal gate, it first goes through a mechanized securi- ty scan. The driver then moves the vehicle on to the scales for a weight check. While at the scales, the driver initiates contact with one of ICTSI’s marine clerks represented by Local 40. During this gate transaction, the driver provides information concerning the load and the marine clerk designates a “yard spot” where the reefer will ultimately be unloaded or “decked.”8 The clerk then instructs the driver to pull up to the reefer check-in area (reefer blocks) a short distanc...
