JAY S. BODINE,
v.
INTERNATIONAL TOTAL SERVICES,
Review of the Recommended Decision and Order attached hereto is by the Administrative Review Board pursuant to ¶ 4.c.(39) of the Secretary's Order 2-96, 61 Fed. Reg. 19978 (1996). That Order provides that the Administrative Review Board is delegated authority and assigned responsibility to act for the Secretary of Labor in issuing final agency decisions on questions of law and fact arising in review or on appeal of certain enumerated Decisions and recommended decisions by Administrative Law Judges. This delegation includes any laws subsequently enacted, such as AIR21, which by statute provide for final decisions by the Secretary of Labor upon review of decisions or recommended decisions issued by Administrative Law Judges. See 49 U.S.C.A. § 42121(b)(3)(A). Regulations have not yet been promulgated by the Department of Labor for the handling of review by the Administrative Review Board of decisions by Administrative Law Judges under the employee protection provisions of AIR21. Accordingly, this Recommended Decision and Order and the administrative file in this matter will be forwarded for review by the Administrative Review Board, U.S. Department of Labor, Room S-4309, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington D.C. 20210. See generally 5 U.S.C. § 557(b).
