ORDERS:
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
This matter comes before me pursuant to S.C. Code Ann. 41-15-310 (Supp. 2008) to review a proposed settlement entered into between the parties on the 19th day of May, 2010.
This matter arose as a result of the issuance of one (1) citation by the South Carolina Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation on September 9, 2008, charging the Respondent with five (5) serious violations of the Occupational Safety and health Standards for which a penalty was proposed in the aggregate amount of Three Thousand Four Hundred Seventy Five ($3,475.00) dollars. The Respondent filed a timely Notice of Protest contesting the issued citation and proposed penalty in this matter.
Subsequently on May 19, 2010, the parties executed a Settlement Agreement, a copy of
which is attached hereto and incorporated herein.
Having carefully reviewed the citations, the Respondent’s Notice of Protest, and the Settlement Agreement incorporated herein, I am persuaded that the proposed settlement is in the best interest of the parties and is consistent with the provisions and objectives of the South Carolina Occupational Safety and Health Act, and
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this case be DISMISSED in keeping with the Settlement Agreement.
AND IT IS ORDERED.
