H.R. 5109, authored by the gentleman from Oklahoma (Mr. Watkins), authorizes the Secretary of Energy, acting through the Southwestern Power Administration, to convey a 6.3 acre parcel of land in Tupelo, Oklahoma. The conveyance will be at fair market value. The parcel has three buildings on the site: an office building, an open-ended garage, and a storage building. The Rural Enterprises of Oklahoma, which currently leases the parcel on a temporary basis, plans to begin incubator businesses utilizing the land and facilities to be transferred. The bill is noncontroversial and will help bring economic development to one of the poorest counties in the State. I urge its adoption.
