constitute a unit of employees of the responding party appropriate for collective bargaining.

5A certificate will issue to the applicant.
6The Registrar will destroy the ballots cast in the representation vote taken in this matter following the expiration of 30 days from the date of this decision unless a statement requesting that the ballots should not be destroyed is received by the Board from one of the parties before the expiration of such 30 day period.
