The issue in this grievance is whether the Form 1723 was properly completed as presented to the union. After reviewing this matter, we mutually agreed that no national interpretive issue is fairly presented in this case. This is a local dispute suitable for regional determination by application of Postal Bulletin 21482 dated October 25, 1984, which states:
"2. Frequency. Prepare a new form for each assigned period. A period begins at the time of change, and ends when employee returns to his or her regular tour or begins a different assignment."
Accordingly, we agreed to remand this case to the parties at Step 3 for further processing, including arbitration if necessary.
