This action provides for the continuation of the lease of land for part of the staging base at Christchurch, New Zealand for the U.S. Antarctic Program (USAP). The lease was established on August 3, 1988 between the Christchurch International Airport Limited (CIAL) and the United States of America, and was initially scheduled to expire on September 30, 1991. Through a series of amendments, the lease was extended to September 30, 1998. The U.S. Navy (Commander, Pacific Division, Naval Facilities Engineering Command) was assigned responsibility for the lease for the United States On April 1, 1998, the fourth amendment to the lease assigned responsibility for the United States from the Navy to the National Science Foundation. This lease is for land only on which sits buildings and property owned by the National Science Foundation. While the Navy was responsible for the lease, NSF reimbursed the Navy for the lease cost, since the land was being used for the sole purpose of supporting the USAP. NSF is negotiating to have the lease transferred from NSF to its support contract, Antarctic Support Associates (ASA). Negotiations were not completed September 30, 1998. CIAL has agreed to extend the current lease until negotiations are complete. NSF has agree to make quarterly payments on the lease cost directly to CIAL until negotiations can be completed and a new lease between ASA and CIAL is executed.First quarter costs for FY-1999 are $30,937 USD. Based on my analysis of the lease negotiations and the recommendation of the NSF contracts office, I recommend this funding award.

这一行动规定继续为美国南极计划在新西兰基督城租用部分集结基地的土地。 该租约于1988年8月3日由基督城国际机场有限公司（CIAL）和美国签订，最初计划于1991年9月30日到期。 经过一系列的修订，该租约已延长至1998年9月30日。 美国海军（海军设施工程司令部太平洋分部司令）被指派负责美国的租赁1998年4月1日，租赁的第四次修正案将美国的责任从海军分配给国家科学基金会。 该租约仅适用于国家科学基金会拥有的建筑物和财产所在的土地。 虽然海军负责租赁，但NSF偿还了海军的租赁费用，因为土地被用于支持USAP的唯一目的。 NSF正在谈判将租赁权从NSF转移到其支持合同南极支持协会（阿萨）。 谈判于1998年9月30日结束。 CIAL已同意延长目前的租约，直到谈判完成。 NSF已同意按季度直接向CIAL支付租赁费用，直到阿萨和CIAL之间的谈判完成并签订新的租赁合同。1999财年第一季度的费用为30，937美元。 根据我对租赁谈判的分析和NSF合同办公室的建议，我推荐这笔资金。
