By Authority letter dated March 26, 1984, the Union was informed that preliminary examination of the petition for review had disclosed a number of apparent deficiencies in meeting the requirements of the Authority's rules of procedure. Specifically, as was noted in the Authority's letter, the Union's appeal failed to comply with sections 2424.4(a)(1) and 2424.4(a)(2) of the Regulations. The Union was also advised in the Authority's letter that further processing of the appeal was contingent upon compliance with the designated provisions of the Authority's Regulations. In this regard, the Union was informed of the specific actions that had to be taken to comply and complete the appeal, and was afforded time in which to take those actions. Finally, the Union was advised that failure to comply with the cited requirements within the time limit provided could result in dismissal of the appeal. The Union has made no submission within the time limit provided. Accordingly, the appeal is hereby dismissed for failure to comply with the Authority's Regulations. For the Authority.
