3.1 Per Creating Labor-Management Forums to Improve Delivery of Government Services (EO 13522), NASA has created LMFs at the Agency level and at the levels of exclusive recognition.

3.1.1 Agency LMFs are operated per NASA's Labor-Management Implementation Plan http://www.lmrcouncil.gov/plans/index.aspx.

3.1.2 Center LMFs are operated in accordance with the local agreement between management and labor.

Therefore, to the extent practicable, where not prohibited by law, management shall engage labor representatives in pre-decisional discussions on matters concerning the working conditions of employees.
