RULE 130. SWITCHING SERVICE FOR NEW AND OTHER INDUSTRIES. (a) Where, after the effective date o£ the Way 23, 1952 Agreement, an industry locates outside of switching limits at points where yard crews are employed, the carrier may provide switching service to such industries with either roadmen or yardmen, or both, without additional compensation or penalties therefor to yard or roadmen, provided the switches governing movements from the main track to the track or tracks serving such industries are Located at a point not to exceed four (4) miles from the switching limits. Other industries located between the switching limits and such new industries may also be served by either road or yardmen without additional compensation or penalties therefor to road or yardmen. Where rules require that yard limits and switching limits be the same, the yard limit board may be moved for operating purposes but switching limits shall remain unchanged unless and until changed in accordance with rules governing changes in switching limits .

(b) When service is performed outside of switching limits by yardmen under the above provisions, the yard engineer or yard engineers involved shall keep account of and report to the carrier daily on form provided the actual time consumed by the yard crew or crews outside of the switching limits in serving the industries in accordance with this rule and a statement of such time shall be furnished the BLE General Chairman or General Chairmen representing yard and road engineers by the carrier each month. The BLE General Chairman or General Chairmen involved may at periodic intervals of not less than three (3) months designate a plan for apportionment of time whereby road engineers from the seniority district on which the industries are located may work in yard service under yard rules and conditions to offset the time consumed by yard crews outside the switching limits. Failing to arrange for the apportionment at the indicated periods they will be understood to have waived rights to apportionment for previous periods. Failure on the part of employe representatives to designate an apportionment, the carrier will be under no obligation to do so and will not be subject to claims.

(c) This rule shall in no way affect the servicing of industries outside yard or switching limits at points where no yard crews are employed.

(d) The foregoing is not intended to amend or change existing agreements involving full time switching service performed solely by road crews at industrial parks located within the four-mile limit referred to in paragraph (a) herein that have been negotiated on individual properties since the National Agreement of 1952.
