In the Matter of

ROCCO P. COLONELLO,
    Complainant

    v.

DICK CORPORATION,
    Respondent

    Rocco P. Colonello filed a complaint alleging that he was discriminatorily discharged from his employment by the respondent because of activities to carry out the purposes of the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, as amended, in violation of Section 210 of that Act (92 Stat. 2951; 42 U.S.C. 5851).

    After a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge, the Judge issued a recommended decision in which be found that Colonello had not shown any discrimination against him by his employer within the meaning of the Act and that no violation of Section 210 of the Act was committed. The Judge therefore recommended that the complaint be dismissed.

    On the basis of the entire record, it is my

conclusion that the findings of fact and conclusions of law, contained in the Administrative Law Judge's recommended decision, dated August 1, 1980, are supported by the evidence in the record, are in accordance with applicable law, and are proper, and I adopt such decision as my own. Accordingly, I conclude that the respondent did not violate Section 210 of the Act as alleged, and the complaint is hereby dismissed.
