§2332 Priorities; Uniformity; Preferences; Impairment of Rights

Summary

The Commission must create rules that set fair priorities for selling government-owned property to private buyers in each community. The rules must be the same for each type or subgroup of property and must give extra preference to people who live there, people connected to the project, and new workers for the Commission, a contractor, or a licensee (occupants = people living there; project-connected persons = people tied to the project; incoming employees = new workers). The Commission must consider four things when deciding how much preference to give: keeping and hiring staff needed for the atomic energy program, cutting down on community disruption, selling the property quickly, and encouraging private businesses to come or stay. People living in a government-owned single-family house, and the senior resident of a duplex, must have at least 90 days to use their first right to buy. Former residents, project-connected people, or community inhabitants can apply for a fair priority if the Commission allows it. The rules must not take away any rights or purchase options already given by existing leases or covenants.
