(b) FLRA investigation of showing of interest and Decision and Order. The FLRA will conduct an investigation if deemed appropriate. An FLRA determination that the showing of interest is adequate is not subject to collateral or direct attack. If the FLRA determines that a showing of interest is inadequate, then the FLRA will issue a Decision and Order dismissing the petition, or denying the request to intervene.
