Sec.  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:
    (1) Determine whether removal of items is in the Government's 
interest. Normally the determining factor is the critical needs of an 
agency program.
    (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.
