§ 604.4 - Administrative claim; when presented.
-
(a) For the purposes of the provisions of section 2672 of the Act and of this part, a claim shall be deemed to have been presented when the Agency receives, in the office designated in paragraph (b) of this section, an executed “Claim for Damage or Injury”, Standard Form 95, or other written notification of an incident, accompanied by a claim for money damages in a sum certain for injury to or loss of property, personal injury or death alleged to have occurred by reason of the incident. The claimant may, if he desires, file a brief with his claim setting forth the law or other arguments in support of his claim. In cases involving claims by more than one person arising from a single accident or incident, individual claim forms shall be used. A claim which should have been presented to the Agency, but which was mistakenly
addressed to or filed with another Federal agency, shall be deemed to have been presented to the Agency as of the date the claim is received by the Agency. If a claim is mistakenly addressed to or filed with the Agency, the Agency shall transfer it forthwith to the appropriate agency. (b) A claimant shall mail, or deliver his claim to the Office of the General Counsel, United States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, State Department Building, 320 21st Street NW., Washington, DC 20451.
