    AMENDMENT OF CERTIFICATION
    OF REPRESENTATIVE

    On December 2, 1991, a Petition for Amendment of Certification was filed pursuant to N.J.A.C . 19:11-1.6 with the Public Employment Relations Commission ("Commission") by F.O.P. Lodge 127, Superior Officers Association ("Lodge 127") seeking to amend a Certification of Representative issued by the Commission on May 28, 1991.

    The initial Certification designated F.O.P. Lodge 36, Superior Officers Association ("Lodge 36") as the majority representative of the public employees in the negotiations unit described therein.

    Lodge 127 has requested that the Commission amend this


    Certification to reflect its transfer of the unit from Lodge 36 to Lodge 127. The public employer has indicated it has no objection to the issuance of an amended Certification.

    The undersigned has caused an investigation to be conducted into the matters involved in this petition.

    Lodge 36 has demonstrated that its members, upon proper notification and by secret ballot, voted on September 30, 1991 to change their membership to Lodge 127. Lodge 36 has also demonstrated that there is a continuity of unit composition and there has been a complete transfer of union officers and members of the unit.

    In consideration of the entire record, and in accordance with the Commission's Rules, the Certification of Representative issued by the Commission on May 28, 1991 is amended to reflect that the exclusive negotiations representative is Lodge 127, Superior Officers Association.

    BY ORDER OF THE DIRECTOR

    OF REPRESENTATION




    Edmund G. Gerber, Director
