A recipient must request in writing
EDA’s approval to undertake an
incidental use of property acquired or

assistance (see 13 CFR 314.3 of EDA’s
regulations). This collection of
information allows EDA to determine
whether an incidental use of property
acquired or improved with EDA
investment assistance is appropriate. If
a recipient wishes EDA to release its
real property or tangible personal
property interests before the expiration
of the property’s estimated useful life,
the recipient must submit a written
request to EDA and disclose to EDA the
intended future use of the real property
or the tangible personal property for
which the release is requested (see 13
CFR 314.10 of EDA’s regulations). This
collection of information allows EDA to
determine whether to release its real
property or tangible personal property
interests.
