Reich, the Secretary of Labor, ("Secretary") petitions for review of a portion of a decision issued by the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission ("Commission") dated August 6, 1992. In the portion of its decision, which is the subject of the petition, the Commission declared as "valid precedent" the analysis underlying its September 6, 1991 decision vacating an administrative law judge's ("ALJ") finding of an Occupational Safety and Health Administration ("OSHA") safety regulation violation. This Court had remanded the case to the Commission with instructions to proceed in accordance with the parties' settlement agreement, which provided for vacatur of the decision of September 6. The Secretary requests enforcement of our mandate in its entirety. For the reasons set forth below, we grant the petition for review, vacate the Commission's August 1992 order and remand to the Commission with instructions to vacate its September 1991 order in its entirety and for all purposes.
