good morning. >> good morning, erik williams, president for the transport union. respectfully, he's misstating the facts of what happened in negotiations between transport workers union and the agency. for one, you were not even there. for two, if you talk to your team in terms of what they brought to the table it was total unfairness. and if you look at the process between the impasse resolution procedure 88 and 049 and prop g, you ask me is it fair and we go to negotiation under these terms. let's be clear here. we want to go back to the table. you guys are refusing trying to push us into a lopsided arbitration process. we're asking to go back to the tab. table. your team misstated the facts on the pension. our team crunched the numbers. that's what happened. we came back. so add ininjury to insult to tell them this is a fair and decent package in terms of this pension where the numbers are not correct? really? i'm not going to do it. our team is not going to do it. and every individual that is driving a bus right now, despite that you think we are incompetent an

as i mentioned when we last met, we did not have ratified agreements for the transport workers union, the three different units of that. for local 200, which represents the supervisors and managers, the application was completed and we're disclosing the labor agreement today and have it ready for your approval on june 30. the highlights of that agreement, it's a two year contract so -- just to refresh your memory, the ones we disclosed on june 3 were all three year contracts for the transport workers union, they'll likely be two year contracts. for local 200 it's a two year contract, it's got a 3% base wage increase this year and 2% increase next year. they will be coming into the city's model which is where the employer pays. some smaller things are language that allows employees to serve suspensions by reducing pay rather than taking time off work so we don't lose the benefit of service should they want to work a cash allowance for safety shoes, a number of other smaller items. the cost of the contract, which is primarily driven by the wages is about 1.2 million in the first fiscal

the main contract is expired. i looked into septa's contract today with the union that represents bus, trolley and subway operators. that expired three months ago. >> reporter: the transportation workers union represents the largest number of unionized septa employees, about 5,000 bus, subway and trolley operators, as well as maintenance personnel. those members are now without a contract. it expired in march. >> unfortunately, that means that any time they could decide to walk out. we hope they don't. we hope they continue negotiating with us. that is also something that's looming out there. >> would you have to take days off work if there were no buses? >> yeah. yeah. it would be a mess. >> reporter: if that happens, the federal government would not be able to intervene like they did to end this weekend's strike to get regional rails back up and running. in that case, negotiations are still ongoing. >> five years without a contract. i haven't gotten a raise. >> mark burns was on strike this weekend. he doesn't want to do it again but he will if he has to. >> i want to make what i'm worth. i also want my back pay. >> reporter: septa management is negotiating with three unions

today a court ruled the transporters union must pay a fine. >>> there's been allegations of corruption in the building of some stadiums. i spoke with brad brooks from associate press about that. >> three out of four brazilians believe there's corruption, because there's a long history of corruption, unfortunately, in brazil, when it comes to megaproduct. associated press, we examined a stadium in brasilia, the second-most expensive stadium, despite the fact they don't have a profghtsal team -- professional team. the cost tripled and auditors say a third of the cost is attributable to what they think are fraudulent charges. >> it's an example of more than 50 world cup works. there are 15 open investigations in brazil that are looking at dozens of these bigger projects that are being built in brazil right now. >> tonight our sunday segment "the week ahead" will focus on the world cup, and the controversy surrounding it, tonight at 8:30 eastern. >> as many as three tornados may have touched down. this funnel cloud was captured near lake george. much of the area is still under tornado watc
