NBC's ASD Manages OST Appraisal Program

NBC Logo
By Jen Pfancuff


On October 1, 2004, the National Business Center's (NBC) Directorate, Appraisal Services (ASD) engaged in management responsibilities for the U.S. Department of the Interior's Office of the Special Trustee Office of Appraisal Services (OST).

Under ASD Associate Director Brian Holly's direction, ASD has been authorized to provide management services to OST in support of Indian land appraisals. The agreement supports the independence of the OST appraisers in that OST has retained control of its budget, the OST appraisal staff remains within OST and in their current locations, and tribes will continue to be able to compact and contract with OST.

On October 26 & 27, 2004, NBC hosted the first ASD/OST regional appraiser meeting in Denver, Colorado. May 17-19, 2005, NBC hosted a second regional appraiser meeting (OST only) at the NBC facility in Reston, Virginia. During both meetings, key NBC and ASD staff met with OST regional supervisory appraisers and other key OST staff. The meetings have provided valuable insight into the OST regional workloads, staffing and space concerns, as well as critical information technology issues. They have also served as a constructive forum for discussion of future opportunities and objectives in FY2005, and made available the opportunity to offer feedback and possible solutions to expressed issues.

ASD will continue to work closely with OST to streamline policies and procedures, and maximize excellence and performance among regions. To promote continued training and certification amongst the OST appraisal staff, ASD facilitated an OST appraisal conference, in August 1-3, 2005, at the FWS National Conservation Training Center in Shepherdstown, West Virginia.
