Controlled Prairie Burn Waste Hauling Landfill Macon County, Illinois

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

Illinois EPA has scheduled the first controlled prairie burn at the former Waste Hauling Landfill site for late February to mid-March 2008. The specific date of the event will depend on weather conditions. The site is located west of Decatur, approximately 1/4 mile south of the Sangamon River on the north side of West Rock Springs Road. The controlled burn is necessary to eliminate accumulated dead vegetation and to stimulate new growth and diversity in the plant life. It will also eliminate invasive plant species, which have more shallow root systems than the mix of prairie plants on the landfill cap.

Margaret J. Lowder -vs- State of Illinois, Department of Central Management Services: On September 23, 2011, Executive Director John F. Brosnan dismissed the unfair labor practice charge filed by Margaret J. Lowder (Charging Party) in the above-captioned case. The Charging Party alleged that the State of Illinois, Department of Central Management Services (Respondent) violated Section 10(a) of the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act, 5 ILCS 315 (2010), as amended (Act), by stipulating with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, Council 31, that her position as an Ececutive I was managerial within the meaning of Section 3(j) of the Act. The Executive Director dismissed the charges because Charging Party was no a public employee within the meaning of Section 3(n) of the Act and because she made no showing that Respondent's stipulation was entered because of the exercise of rights protected under the Act or was based on anything other than its good faith assessment of her particular duties.

Section 6.1 of the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act, 5 ILCS 315/6.1 (2012) added by Public Act 97-1172 (eff. April 5, 2013), allows the Governor of the State of Illinois to designate certain public employment positions with the State of Illinois as excluded from collective bargaining rights which might otherwise be granted under the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act. There are three broad categories of positions which may be so designated: 1) positions which were first certified to be in a bargaining unit by the Illinois Labor Relations Board on or after December 2, 2008, 2) positions which were the subject of a petition for such certification pending on April 5, 2013 (the effective date of Public Act 97-1172), or 3) positions which have never been certified to have been in a collective bargaining unit. Only 3,580 of such positions may be so designated by the Governor, and, of those, only 1,900 positions which have already been certified to be in a collective bargaining unit.

This appeal involves the direct review, pursuant to section 11(e) of the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act (Act)(5 ILCS 315/11(e)(West2010)) and Illinois Supreme Court Rule 335 (eff. Feb. 1, 1994), of a decision by the Illinois Labor Relations Board, State Panel (Board), to dismiss an unfair labor practice complaint brought by petitioner, Ann Moehring, against her former employer, the Chief Judge of the Sixteenth Judicial Circuit (Chief Judge). While her unfair labor practice complaint was pending before the Board, Moehring participated, pursuant to the terms of a collective bargaining agreement, in a grievance arbitration hearing at which the central issue was whether the Chief Judge had just cause to terminate Moehring's employment as a Kendall County probation officer. The arbitrator ruled in the Chief Judge's favor. Subsequently, the Board dismissed Moehring's unfair labor practice complaint, having determined that the criteria for deferral to the arbitrator's decision were met. On appeal, Moehring contends that, because the arbitrator was not presented with the issues raised in her unfair labor practice complaint, the Board's decision to defer to the arbitration award was improper.
