Special Grievances. a) Grievances concerning discharge or suspen- sion may be initiated at Step 3 of the Grievance Procedure. b) Issues which would become moot due to the length of time necessary to exhaust the grievance steps, may be filed at the appropriate advance Step where the action giving rise to the situation was initiated. c) When an issue arises from an action or decision by a Department other than the Department of Transportation (such as a decision of the Human Resources Department regarding the application of FMLA leave) a grievance may be initiated at Step 2 and filed with the Director of the Depart- ment where the action or decision giving rise to the grievance occurred.
