MEMORANDUM FOR: Executive Director- Comptroller
SUBJECT: Approval of Construction Activities and
Real Estate Purchases
REFERENCE: Memo dtd 29 July '65 to Ex. Dir-Com.pt. fr
DD/S, subj: Approval Authorities
1. This memorandum submits a recommendation for your approval;
such recommendation is contained in paragraph 4.
2. We have experienced difficulty in determining from. the written
record where authority exists to approve construction activities and real
estate purchases. By referent memorandum I requested, among other things,
that the Deputy Director for Support be provided such authority not to exceed
$75, 000. 00. Your 10 August 1965 approval of referent memorandum reduced
the level of that authority to $25, 000. 00. After several months of experience
with the $25, 000. 00 limitation we again discussed the subject, and you verbally
authorized me to approve construction activities and real estate purchases up
to the $100, 000. 00 level. Unfortunately I did not submit to you a paper which
would make this a matter of record.
3. During February 1970 you passed to me for comment a proposed
new approval policy which if implemented would provide me with authority
in this area up to $200, 000. 00. The new approval policy has not yet been
implemented.
4. It would be helpful to me if during this interim period until the
new approval policy is issued, that my authority to approve construction
activities and real estate purchases not to exeed $100, 000. 00 be confirmed.
