(c)as subsection (d); and by inserting after subsection
(b)the following new subsection: A lease of a Government-owned/contractor-operated industrial plant or facility may permit the lessee, with the approval of the Secretary concerned, to alter, expand, or otherwise improve the plant or facility as necessary for the development or production of military weapons systems, munitions, components, or supplies. Such lease may provide, notwithstanding section 2802 of this title, that such alteration, expansion or other improvement shall, upon completion, become the property of the Government, regardless of whether such alteration, expansion, or other improvement constitutes all or part of the consideration for the lease pursuant to section 2667(b)(5) of this title or represents a reimbursable cost allocable to any contract, cooperative agreement, grant, or other instrument with respect to activity undertaken at such industrial plant or facility. When a decision is made to approve a project to which paragraph
(1)applies costing more than the threshold specified under section 2805(c) of this title, the Secretary concerned shall notify the congressional defense committees in writing of that decision, the justification for the project, and the estimated cost of the project. The project may be carried out only after the end of the 21-day period beginning on the date the notification is received by the committees or, if earlier, the end of the 14-day period beginning on the date on which a copy of the notification is provided in an electronic medium pursuant to section 480 of this title. .
