conservation conveyance
The Conservation Conveyance is a 2003 statute, Title 10 of the United States Code, section 2694(a), authorizing military departments to convey surplus real property to states, local governments, or private, land-acquiring non-profit conservators for perpetual conservation use.〔House of Representatives, Office of the Law Revision Council, Title 10, U.S. Code (Section 2694a ), Conveyance of Surplus Real Property for Natural Resource Conservation Purposes. Retrieved 2008-08-28.〕
The Conservation Conveyance is unique to the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), allowing it to transfer closed military bases into permanent conservation status. According to a January, 2005 Report by the United States Government Accountability Office (GAO), titled ''Military Base Closures: Updated Status of Prior Base Realignments and Closures (BRAC):'' “This method was used by DOD for the first time in September 2003 to transfer property for natural resource and conservation purposes. Under this method, the U.S. Army transferred almost from the (Sierra Army Depot ), California, to the Honey Lake Conservation Team, which is made up of two nonprofit organizations—the (Center for Urban Watershed Renewal ) and the Trust for Public Land—and two private-sector companies. This is the largest single transfer of surplus BRAC property that the Army has undertaken. Nearly 22 percent of the BRAC acreage transferred to nonfederal users in the prior rounds was accomplished through this method.”〔Government Accountability Office,('' Military Base Closures: Updated Status of Prior Base Realignments and Closings'' ), GAO 05-138, January 5, 2005, pg. 15. Retrieved 2008-08-27.〕 The Army describes its first experience with the Conservation Conveyance in an article titled ''Army Finds Success in New Method of Returning Land to Civilian Use''. ()
The Conservation Conveyance was created by Rebecca R. Rubin, founder and President of Marstel-Day, LLC as a technique for transferring closed military bases into permanent conservation status, an accomplishment for which she received the Association of Defense Communities’ 2008 Private Sector Leader of the Year Award.〔("2008 Defense Community Awards," ) Association of Defense Communities official webpage. Retrieved 2008-08-28.〕 To date, approximately of land have been permanently conserved using this approach. Ms. Rubin also hosts an audio program entitled “Vital Voices of the Environment”〔Marstel-Day, LLC, ("Vital Voices of the Environment," ) audio interview series with environmental leaders.〕 in which she interviews environmental thinkers and planners of our times, each of whom offers a perspective on the key issues now and for the environmental future of our planet.
