The parties waived all further and other proceedings before the Board to which they may be entitled under the National Labor Relations Act and the Board’s Rules and Regulations, and the Respondent waived its right to contest the entry of a consent judgment or to receive further notice of the application therefor. The National Labor Relations Board has delegated its authority in this proceeding to a three-member panel. The Formal Settlement Stipulation is approved and made a part of the record, and the proceeding is transferred to and continued before the Board in Washington, D.C., for entry of a Decision and Order pursuant to the provisions of the Formal Settlement Stipulation.1 1 We note that the remedy to which the parties have agreed differs in some respects from previous broad orders that the Board has issued against the Respondent in cases alleging that the Respondent has violated Sec. 8(a)(5) of the Act by failing and refusing to provide relevant information. See, e.g., United States Postal Service, 345 NLRB 426 (2005), enfd. 486 F.3d 683 (10th Cir. 2007); United States Postal Service, 28-CA- 017383 et al., unpublished order issued November 4, 2002, enfd. Case 02-9587 (10th Cir. 2003). These broad orders, as enforced by the United States Courts of Appeals, 3 Based on the Formal Settlement Stipulation and the entire record, the Board makes the following Findings of Fact 1. The Respondent’s business The Postal Service is engaged in the business of providing postal services for the United States of America, and operates various facilities throughout the United States in performing that function, including its facilities at: 5171 Overseas Highway, Marathon, Florida (Marathon Post Office); 1801 Polk Street, Hollywood, Florida (Hollywood Main Post Office); 10360 SW 186th Street, Miami, Florida (Quail Heights Post Office); 11000 SW 104th Street, Miami, Florida (Snapper Creek Post Office); 150 SE 2nd Ave, #103, Miami, Florida (Metro Postal Store); 14790 SW 88th Street, Miami, Florida (West Dade Post Office); 107 Westward Drive, Miami, Florida (Miami Springs Post Office); 7500 NW 25th Street, Unit 11, Miami, Florida (West Carrier Annex); 18640 NW 2nd Avenue, Miami, Florida (Norland Post Office); 13520 SW 152nd Street, Miami, Florida (Country Lakes Post Office); 8880 SW 8th Street, Miami, Florida (Tamiami Post Office); 3585 NE 207th Street, Miami, Florida (Aventura Post Office); 101 SE 1st Avenue, Hallandale, Florida (Countyline Post Office); 1799 NW 28th Street, Miami, Florida (Allapattah Post Office); 2200 NW 72nd Avenue, Miami, Florida (Milam Dairy Annex); 18070 Collins Avenue, Miami, Florida (Sunny Isles Post Office); 16750 NE 4th Place Avenue, Miami, Florida (Uleta Post Office); 18901 W. Dixie Highway, Miami, Florida (Ojus Post Office); 5600 NW 72nd Avenue, Miami, Florida (Milam Dairy Post Office); 5927 SW 70th Street, Miami, Florida (South Miami Post Office); 75 Miracle Mile, Miami, Florida (Miracle Mile Post Office); 3191 Grand Avenue, Miami, Florida (Coconut Grove Post Office); remain in effect, and the Board's approval of this stipulation does not modify these orders in any respect. Member Emanuel would not approve the parts of the Order that require the Respondent to take action with respect to “other unions that are exclusive collective- bargaining representatives of units of certain of its employees, or their affiliated local unions in its South Florida District,” because no violations against other unions are alleged as part of this case. 4 16400 West Dixie Highway, Miami, Florida (North Miami Beach Post Office); 14310 SW 8th Street, Miami, Florida (Father Felix Varela Post Office); 951 Crandon Boulevard, Key Biscayne, Florida (Key Biscayne Post Office); 500 NW 2nd Avenue, Miami, Florida (Flagler Post Office); 425 NW 27th Avenue, Miami, Florida (Jose Marti Post Office); 1800 Coral Way, Miami, Florida (Shenandoah Post Office); 251 Valencia Avenue, Coral Gables, Florida (Coral Gables Post Office); 3500 South Dixie Highway, Miami, Florida (Hibiscus Post Office); 22350 Old Dixie Highway, Miami, Florida (Goulds Post Office); 8266 Mills Drive, Space 9, Miami, Florida (Town & Country Post Office); 7501 SW 117th Avenue, Miami, Florida (Sunset Post Office); 9833 E. Hibiscus Street, Miami, Florida (Perrine Post Office); 3801 SW 117th Avenue, Miami, Florida (Olympia Heights Post Office); 11301 South Dixie Highway, Miami, Florida (Pinecrest Post Office); 10500 SW 109th Court, Miami, Florida (Kendall Carrier Annex); 8821 SW 136th Street, Miami, Florida (Kendall Finance Post Office); 1101 Brickell Avenue, Miami, Florida (Brickell Post Office); 5500 NW 142nd Street, Opa-Locka, Florida (Opa-Locka Post Office); and other facilities in its South Florida District, which includes all postal zip codes beginning with the digits 330, 331, 332, 333, 334, 340 and 349.
