Hybrid Union Meeting, Tuesday, August 6th @ 9:00 AM.
You have 3 ways you can participate in the meeting:
1. Join us in-person at the CLC Meeting Room at 723 Flack Ave in Alliance, NE
2. Join us over Zoom Video Conference, or
3. Call in Conference Call.
To request the login information for either Zoom or Conference Call, go to www.blet622.com/zoom
Over the last few meetings we have had many members logging in without having their Full Name set up on Zoom. This makes it difficult for us to identify you, and may interrupt the meeting.
Please make sure that your Full Name is set up in your Zoom account. To check this, in the Zoom App go to Settings (Gear in upper Right-Hand Corner), Then go to Profile in the menu.
If your name is not recognizable by the hosts, this could prevent you from being admitted to the meeting.
Also, if you are participating, please try to log on between 8:30 and 8:55 the morning of the meeting. We need to grant access, verify who you are, and make sure your audio is working properly. This takes a little time, especially if we have numerous participants. We ask this to insure the meeting, once started at 9:00, can proceed without interruption and in a timely manner.
BE AN ACTIVE MEMBER AND MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD. ATTEND YOUR LOCAL MEETINGS!

The board calculation by the union is suggested to the carrier for their approval. This change is not set in stone and can be changed at the carrier's discretion as long as it is within the agreed-upon window for that specific pool.
Short Pool:
Turns called on Alliance Board 501, Edgemont 201, Guernsey 411, Sterling 411, and any short pool engineers used on 801, are added together for the 15-day look-back period. This total is multiplied by 2 to give an average for 30 days. That number is then divided by 21 and 25 to establish the active start window for the pool. If the current number of turns is within the window there will be NO CHANGE for that week. If the number of turns is outside the window, there will be either an ADD or a CUT to get the number within the window. These changes will typically be made to the middle of the window, but not always.
Long Pool:
Turns called on Alliance board 511, off turn on 621, and all Non-PWS engineers called on Grand Island 101 are added up for the 15-day look-back period. This total is multiplied by 2 to give an average for 30 days. That number is then divided by 14 and 16 to establish the active start window for the pool. If the current number of turns is within the window there will be NO CHANGE for that week. If the number of turns is outside the window, there will be either an ADD or a CUT to get that number within the window. These changes will typically be made to the middle of the window, but not always.
