Sec. 25. (a) If a labor dispute involving the authority and its employees is not governed by the Federal Labor Management Relations Act, as amended (29 U.S.C. sections 141-197 and 557), or by the Railway Labor Act, as amended (45 U.S.C. sections 151-188), the authority shall offer to submit the dispute to an arbitration team composed of one (1) member appointed by the authority, one (1) member appointed by the labor organization representing the employees, and one (1) member agreed upon by the labor organization and the authority. The member agreed upon by the labor organization and the authority shall serve as chair of the team. The determination of the majority of the arbitration team is final and binding on all matters in dispute.
(b) If within the first ten (10) days after the date of the appointment of the arbitrators representing the authority and the labor organization, the third arbitrator has not been selected, then either arbitrator may request the American Arbitration Association to furnish from a current listing of the membership of the National Academy of Arbitrators the names of seven (7) members of the National Academy from which the third arbitrator shall be selected. After receipt of the list, the arbitrators appointed by the authority and the labor organization shall promptly determine by lot the order of elimination and then alternately eliminate one (1) name from the list at a time until only one (1) name remains. The remaining person on the list is the third arbitrator.
(c) For purposes of this section, the term "labor dispute" shall be broadly construed and includes any controversy regarding the collective bargaining agreements and any grievance that may arise.
(d) Each party shall pay one-half (1/2) of the expenses of arbitration under this section.
