CASE NO. 91-ERA-39


IN THE MATTER OF
YVONNE HENDERSON,
          COMPLAINANT,
        v.
ALLIED RADIOLOGICAL CONTROL,
RESPONDENT.

BEFORE:  THE SECRETARY OF LABOR

                   ORDER APPROVING SETTLEMENT
                       AND DISMISSING CASE
    This case is before me for review of the Recommended
Decision and Order Approving Settlement of the Chief
Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) in this case under the employee
protection provision of the Energy Reorganization Act, as amended
(ERA), 42 U.S.C. § 5851 (1988).  The ALJ recommends approval
of the settlement agreement.
    I have limited my review of the agreement to determining
whether its terms are a fair, adequate and reasonable settlement
of Complainant's allegation that Respondent violated the ERA.[1]
See Poulos v. Ambassador Fuel Oil Co., Inc., Case
No. 86-CAA-1, Sec. Ord., Nov. 2, 1987, slip op. at 2.  Upon review of the terms
of the agreement and the record, I find that the agreement is
fair, adequate and reasonable, and I approve it.  Accordingly,
the complaint is DISMISSED with prejudice.  Settlement Agreement
¶ 1.
SO ORDERED.
