On February 24th and 25th the Executive Committee met and exchanged 2009 Contract proposals with the Corporation. The Corporation was not interested in discussing any items that had financial implications until the 2006-2008 Arbitration comes down. What were able to take care was of some housekeeping issues in the agreement. We have two other dates lined up near the end of March. We have no idea at this time when the 2006-2008 arbitration will be handed down.
