(A) Federal financing through appropriations; or
(B) sale of the property.

(3) Measures of effectiveness.— Measures of effectiveness for the enhanced-use lease program.
(4) Accounting controls.— Accounting controls and procedures to ensure accountability, such as an audit trail and documentation to readily support financial transactions.
