17 Pa. Code § 15.1. Background.

§ 15.1. Background.

 (a)  Under section 514 of The Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. §  194), a department may not sell or exchange real estate belonging to the Commonwealth without specific authority from the General Assembly. Since there is no general authority for the transfer or exchange of State Park land, a transfer or exchange may be conducted only under a specific act of the General Assembly.

 (b)  When authorized by statute, the policy in §  15.2 (relating to policy) will guide Departmental action as related to the exchange of State Park land, or the transfer of State Park land to other Commonwealth departments or agencies, except that the policy will not apply to minor exchanges for the purpose of adjusting boundaries and Memoranda of Understanding involving less than 1 acre.
