1. Purpose. The purpose of this Order is to ensure certain real property-related delegations previously set forth in the Federal Management Regulation continue in effect following revision of that regulation.

2. Background. GSA’s Federal Management Regulation previously delegated certain of the Administrator’s real property authorities outside the Agency. GSA has repealed those regulations, and is retaining certain real property delegations set forth in this non-regulatory Order.

3. Delegations. Pursuant to 40 U.S.C. §§ 121(d) and 3315, the Administrator hereby delegates the authorities set forth herein. Unless otherwise specified, delegations are to the heads of agencies.

4. Limitations. Federal agencies must exercise delegated real property authority and functions in accordance with law and the parameters described herein, and are limited to the specific authority delegated.

5. Additional Delegations. This Order does not impact any prior delegation of authority still in effect. Additional authorities may be delegated on an as-needed basis.
