STIPULATION AND SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
As a full and complete settlement of this action which is pending before the Commission on respondent's petition for discretionary review of the decision and order of Administrative Law Judge David J. Knight filed May 5, 1983, the parties stipulate and agree as follows:

1. The Secretary hereby withdraws the citation issued to respondent on February 11, 1981.

2. Respondent agrees that during the performance of built-up roofing work on low- pitched roofs more than 16 feet above ground it will comply with the requirements of 29 CFR 1926.500(g)(1)(ii), by use of a MSS system or a safety monitoring system, whenever its employees work between a warning line and the edge of the roof.

3. The parties agree that nothing in this stipulation and settlement agreement is to be construed as an admission that respondent violated the OSH Act as alleged in the citation.

4. Each party will bear its own fees, costs, and expenses as to the entire proceeding.
