Approved April 1, 1952
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That § 10-21.1 of the Code of Virginia be amended and reenacted as
follows:
§ 10-21.1. (1) The Director is hereby authorized and empowered,
subject to the consent and approval of the Governor, to convey, lease or
demise to any responsible individual, organization, * association or corpo-
ration for such consideration and on such terms as the Board may
prescribe, by proper deed * or other appropriate instrument signed and
executed by the Director, in the name of the Commonwealth, any lands
or other properties held for general recreational or other public purposes
by the Commonwealth, for the Department, or over which it has super-
vision and control, or any part or parts thereof or right or interest therein
or privilege with respect thereto. * The Governor is also hereby author-
ized and empowered to direct the discontinuance of the operation of any
or all State Parks when in his judgment the public interest so requires.
(2) The Director is further authorized and empowered, subject to
the consent and approval of the Governor, to grant to any public service
corporation for such consideration and on such terms as the Board may
prescribe, by proper deed or other appropriate instrument signed and
executed by the Director in the name of the Commonwealth, any easement
over, upon and across any lands or other properties of any kind or charac-
ter so held by the Commonwealth or over which it has such supervision
and control, provided such easement is consistent with and not in deroga-
tion of the general purpose for which such land or other property is held.
No such easement shall be granted for a longer term than ten years but
shall be subject to renewal at the discretion of the Governor and of the
Board at the end of the period for which it is granted.
(3) Any such conveyance, lease or grant herein authorized shall be
subject to such further provisions, conditions, restrictions and reservations
as may be approved by the Governor and prescribed by the Director.
2. An emergency exists and this act is in force from its passage.
