In the Matter of Superior Officers Benevolent Association et al., Appellants, v Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority et al., Respondents.
[665 NYS2d 260]

—Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Ira Gammerman, J.), entered August 22, 1996, which denied petitioners’ application pursuant to CPLR article 78 to declare illegal and enjoin respondents’ determination to replace absent lieutenants with sergeants at major facilities and dismissed the petition, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

terpretation is neither irrational nor unreasonable (Matter of Howard v Wyman, 28 NY2d 434 , 438) and effects a managerial determination within its purview. Concur—Nardelli, J. P., Mazzarelli, Andrias and Colabella, JJ.
