Text

If the conciliator so named is unable to effect a
settlement of such dispute within a thirty (30) day period after his
appointment, he shall report such fact to the governor, and the
governor, if he believes that a continuation of the dispute will cause or
is likely to cause the interruption of the supply of a service on which
the community so affected is so dependent that severe hardship would
be inflicted on a substantial number of persons by a cessation of such
service, shall appoint a board of arbitration to hear and determine such
dispute. The board of arbitration shall consist of three (3) members
chosen by the governor from the board of arbitrators panel provided for
in section 4 of this chapter. A new board shall be chosen by the
governor for each separate dispute, but the same board may hear any
number of issues or grievances which are involved at the same time in
any dispute between the same employer and his employees. Members
of such board of arbitration shall be allowed reasonable compensation
for their services and for their necessary expenses in an amount to be
fixed by the governor, and such compensation and expenses shall be
shared equally by the parties to the dispute.
