# §22.101-4. Removal of items from contractors' facilities affected by work stoppages.

- (a) Items shall be removed from contractors' facilities affected by work stoppages in accordance with agency procedures. Agency procedures should allow for the following:

  - (2) Attempt to arrange with the contractor and the union representative involved their approval of the shipment of urgently required items.
  - (3) **Obtain appropriate approvals from within the agency.**
  - (4) Determine who will remove the items from the plant(s) involved.
- (b) Avoid the use or appearance of force and prevent incidents that might detrimentally affect labor-management relations.
- (c) When two or more agencies' requirements are or may become involved in the removal of items, the contract administration office shall ensure that the necessary coordination is accomplished.
