What BGS state triggers the "exterminate the scavengers" missions?

[BradHann]

You know the ones, settlement owner is upset that a bunch of squatters have taken up residence, so they ask you to get rid of them. I've found that these are great missions; you get to do all the looting consequence free and you get paid to do it (ok, so you also have to kill a few people, pfff whatever). What BGS states am I looking for to find them?

The only time I have ever found even a single genetic repair med was when doing one of these missions. That factoid has absolutely no influence over this post, oh no, none whatsoever.

Any of the negative states that creates a dead settlement. Infrastructure Failure & Outbreak mainly, Bust, Famine, Drought, Natural Disaster. If it's empty there's a chance that there are scavs there whether you have a mission to kill them or not. And you get the same benefit with reactivate missions. I'd add restore missions but the putting out fires part just slows you down (but if you really like that add Civil Unrest to the list).
