§ 644.444 Authority.
Surplus leasehold interests in real property are disposed of under authority delegated by the General Services Administration (GSA) to the Department of Defense (DOD). DOD has redelegated this authority to the military departments. DEs, within the limits of the authority delegated, have been authorized to terminate leases, execute agreements in settlement of restoration obligations, and perform necessary restoration work required by lease terms, directly or by contract, in accordance with the provisions stated in §§ 644.444 through 644.471. Exceptions are where: (a) Under the terms of the lease the leasehold is transferable to third parties or Government-owned improvements on leased airport or other special types of leased property have an in-place value to the lessor for airport or other special purposes; or (b) the leasehold or Government-owned improvements may be disposed of to eligible public agencies under special statutes (FPMR 101-47.4905), in which cases the procedures provided in §§ 644.400 through 644.443 will be applied to the extent applicable. Disposals within the scope of the above exceptions require the prior approval of DAEN-REM.
