This subpart prescribes policies and procedures for use in acquisitions arising from closure of military installations.
(a) DoD policy is to minimize the adverse impact on civil service employees affected by the closure of military installations. One means of implementing this policy is to give employees adversely affected by closure of a military installation the right of first refusal for jobs created by award of contracts arising from the closure effort that the employee is qualified to fill.
(b) Closure efforts include acquisitions for preparing the installation for closure (such as environmental restoration and utilities modification) and maintaining the property after closure (such as security and fire prevention services).
Use the clause at 252.222-7001, Right of First Refusal of Employment-Closure of Military Installations, in all solicitations and contracts arising from the closure of the military installation where the contract will be performed.
