DECISION AND 	ORDER
San 	Ramon 	Valley 	Education Association 1 	CTA/NEA 	(SRVEA 	or
Association) 	made 	a 	motion 	to 	reopen 	the 	record 	for 	the 	purpose
of 	admitting 	into 	evidence, 	as 	its 	exhibit, 	a 	copy 	of 	an
arbitrator's 	opinion 	and 	award 	in 	a 	1987-88 	agency 	fee
arbitration. 	The 	Association 	urges 	the 	Public 	Employment
Relations 	Board 	(Board) 	to 	accept 	this 	new 	evidence 	to 	show 	that
the 	arbitrator 	established, 	as 	a 	factual 	matter, 	the 	validity 	of

its 	presumption 	that 	the 	chargeable 	expenses 	for 	the 	California
Teachers 	Association's 	(CTA) 	local 	chapters 	are 	at 	least 	as 	great
as, 	if 	not 	greater 	than, 	the 	chargeable 	expenses 	of 	CTA.
The 	Board 	DENIES 	the 	Association's 	motion. 	Such 	evidence
would 	be 	cumulative 	and, 	as 	SRVEA's 	counsel 	admits, 	Barbara 	C.
Abbot 	and 	Yvonne 	M. 	Cameron 	were 	not 	parties 	to 	the 	1987-88
arbitration.
