(3) would relocate an office or employees;

(4) would reorganize offices, programs, projects, or activities;

(5) would involve contracting out functions which had been performed by Federal employees; or

(6) would involve a reprogramming in excess of $1,000,000 or 10 percent (whichever is less) and would—

(A) augment existing programs, projects, or activities,

(B) reduce by 10 percent or more the funding for any existing program, project, activity, or personnel approved by the Congress, or

(C) result from any general savings from a reduction in personnel that would result in a change in existing programs, activities, or projects approved by the Congress.
