From the Collective Bargaining Agreement Article 48 Section 1 (D):

Employees are expected to listen to radio and/or
television broadcasts to learn when an appropriation
or continuing resolution has been signed or when
the debt ceiling has been raised. The Employer
and the Union are free to negotiate, at the national
level, additional methods of notifying employees
about the conclusion of the furlough. Employees
will then be expected to report to work no later
than four (4) hours after that announcement. In
the event the announcement contains instructions
on reporting to work later than that, employees will
be expected to follow those instructions. A liberal
leave policy will be in effect on the day employees
are to return to work. Employees who travel during
the time of the furlough will be expected to return
to work in accordance with the terms of this Article
or with the more specific instructions.
