Before me for review is the Recommended Decision - Denying
Complaint, issued on July 30, 1986, by Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) Anthony J. Iacobo in
the above-captioned case which arises under the employee protection (whistleblower) provision
of the Surface Transportation Assistance Act of 1982 (STAA), 49 U.S.C. app. § 2305(b)
(1982).
After careful consideration of the facts stipulated to by the parties and the
exhibits in the record, I adopt the findings set forth in Judge Iacobo's decision, a copy of which is
appended hereto, and accept his conclusion that Complainant failed to establish that Respondent
violated section 2305(b) of the STAA.
