[DO NOT PUBLISH] IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FILED FOR THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT U.S. COURT OF APPEALS ________________________ Nos. 05-15860 & 05-16096 ________________________ ELEVENTH CIRCUIT DECEMBER 27, 2006 THOMAS K. KAHN CLERK NLRB Nos. 12-CA-20173 & 12-CA-20527 & 12-CA-17385 NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD, Petitioner, versus GIMROCK CONSTRUCTION, INC., Respondent. ________________________ Applications for Enforcement of Orders of the National Labor Relations Board ________________________ (December 27, 2006) Before EDMONDSON, Chief Judge, BARKETT and COX, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: This is a consolidation of two applications of the National Labor Relations Board ( the Board ) to enforce its Order (R.3-13 at 1-9) and its Supplemental Decision and Order (R.1-30 at 1-7) against Gimrock Construction, Inc. ( Gimrock ). The International Union of Operating Engineers, Local 487, AFL-CIO ( the Union ) initiated these proceedings by filing unfair labor practice charges against Gimrock. Our obligation is to review the record to determine if there is substantial evidence to support the Board s findings. NLRB v. Varo, Inc., 425 F.2d 293, 296 (5th Cir. 1970). This court will enforce an order even if it would have made different findings upon a de novo review of the evidence. Cooper/T. Smith, Inc. v. NLRB, 177 F.3d 1259, 1261 (11th Cir. 1999). Four issues are presented for our review. First, Respondent challenges the Board s finding that Gimrock violated 29 U.S.C. § 158(a)(1) and (5) by refusing the Union s requests for payroll records. Second, Respondent disputes the Board s finding that Gimrock violated 29 U.S.C. § 158(a)(1) and (5) and § 158(d) by refusing to meet and bargain collectively after October 27, 1999. Third, Respondent challenges the Board s finding that Gimrock violated 29 U.S.C. § 158(a)(1) and (3) by refusing to reinstate the Union strikers. Fourth, Respondent disputes the Board s finding that the Union s bargaining position did not evidence an unlawful jurisdiction dispute. Having reviewed the record, we conclude that substantial evidence supports the Board s findings on all four issues. Thus, the Board s Order (R.3-13 at 1-9) and its Order following its Supplemental Decision (R.1-30 at 1-7) will be enforced. ORDERS ENFORCED. 2
