Local 2102 of the United Steelworkers of America contends that CF&I Steel Corp. violated sections of the National Labor Relations Act. Specifically, the company is accused of failing to provide the union with information needed to settle a contract dispute after an arbitrator ruled against CF&I. The complaint stems from a three-month fight between the union and CF&I over incentive rates for arc-furnace workers.
The perseverance of 5 members of United Steelworkers of America LU 2012, finally paid off with the dedication of a community water system in Salt Creek, funded by a federal grant. Tests of 37 wells conducted by the City and County Health Dept. had shown only 4 wells with water safe to drink. The men, all employed by CF&I, are: Endy Garcia, Basic Oxygen Shop; Ray Barela, Wire Mill Drawing Room; Ted T. Lopez, Wire Mill Weigher; Stanley Gutierrez, Wire Mill Galvanizing; and Adrian Martinez, Operator, Hearth Department.
