The Bargaining Committee resumed face-to-face negotiations with the Company on Tuesday, January 11th.

  We continue to work together towards establishing a middle ground.  Each side has tabled some modifications to their original proposals.  Face-to-face meetings are currently scheduled to continue until the end of March.  Additional meetings will be scheduled as necessary.  The Bargaining Committee expects that progress will continue.

We will continue to update you as bargaining progresses.
