On Petition for Review of an Order of the
National Labor Relations Board
Argued and Submitted December 3, 2019
San Francisco, California
Before: SILER,
**
CLIFTON, and BYBEE, Circuit Judges.

The International Union of Operating Engineers Local 501, AFL- CIO
(“Union”) and NP Sunset LLC, DBA Sunset Station Hotel Casino (“Sunset”) each
petition for review of a January 7, 2019 Order by the National Labor Relations
Board (“Board”). The Board has also filed a cross-application to enforce this
Order against Sunset. We deny both petitions for review and grant the Board’s
cross-application to enforce its Order.
As we have concluded in a case argued together with this one, the Board did
not err in determining that the casino slot technicians are not “guards” under 29
U.S.C. § 159(b)(3). Int’l Union of Operating Eng’rs Local 501 v. NLRB, ___ F.3d
___, No. 18-71124 (9th Cir. ________, 2020).
In addition, the Board did not abuse its discretion in declining to grant the
Union’s request for enhanced remedies. See United Steel Workers of Am. AFL-
CIO-CLC v. NLRB, 482 F.3d 1112, 1116 (9th Cir. 2007). The Board also did not

err in failing to provide an explanation for its decision to issue standard remedies.
See id. at 1118 (9th Cir. 2007) (“[T]he Board’s decision to order an
unextraordinary remedy does not merit an extraordinary explanation.”).
Petitions for Review DENIED; Cross-Application to Enforce
GRANTED.
