Case No. 84-TSC-2
In the Matter of:
CHARLES EGGERS,
Complainant,
v.
CINCINNATI DRUM SERVICES, INC.,
Respondent.
RECOMMENDED ORDER OF DISMISSAL
This proceeding arose under the Toxic Substances
Control Act (15 U.S.C. § 2601 et seq.). A formal hearing set
for January 10 and 11, 1984, in Cincinnati, Ohio, was ordered
continued pending settlement of the dispute.
On February 27, 1984, the parties filed a Stipulation
of Dismissal with an attached copy of an executed Settlement
Agreement, a copy of which is marked Exhibit A and is attached
hereto and made apart of this Recommended Order of Dismissal.
The U. S. Department of Labor's investigation of the
Complaint found no discrimination under the Act. I find
that the parties' Stipulation for Dismissal and Settlement
Agreement is reasonable and proper and that a dismissal is
not against the public interest.
IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that the Complaint be dismissed
with prejudice.

AND RELEASE OF CLAIMS
This agreement is made and entered into by and between CHARLES

is contingent upon the Administrative Law Judge's recommendation to
the Secretary of Labor that the Complaint be dismissed based on this
Stipulation of Dismissal, and upon the Secretary of Labor's acceptance
of this recommendation of dismissal.
3. It is hereby understood that this settlement agreement is
entered into by the Company solely to avoid the time and expense of
litigation and that by entering into the settlement the Company does
not in any way admit any wrongdoing or violation of any laws.
4. The Company agrees to Pay Eggers the amount of One Thousand
Dollars (,000.00) in full and final settlement of all suits, causes
