This law defines "obsolete vessel" for this chapter as a vessel in the Maritime Administration's custody for disposal, which the Secretary of Transportation has decided isn't valuable enough to keep for future use, spare parts, or to stay in the National Defense Reserve Fleet.
In this chapter, "obsolete vessel*" means a vessel that meets two conditions: (1) it is, or will be, in the Maritime Administration's custody and control specifically to be disposed of; and (2) the Secretary of Transportation has determined that, given the Maritime Administration's programs, it isn't valuable enough to be worth (A) keeping for future use or for harvesting spare parts, or (B) keeping in the National Defense Reserve Fleet.
In this chapter, the term “obsolete vessel*” means a vessel that—
is or will be in the custody and control of the Maritime Administration for purposes of disposing of the vessel; and
has been determined by the Secretary of Transportation to be of insufficient value, with respect to the programs of the Maritime Administration, to warrant—
preserving for future use or spare parts harvesting; or
retaining in the National Defense Reserve Fleet.
