   CHAPTER 631--SECRETARY OF THE NAVY: MISCELLANEOUS POWERS AND DUTIES
 
Sec. 7227. Foreign naval vessels and aircraft: supplies and 
        services
        
    (a) The Secretary of the Navy, under such regulations as he 
prescribes, may authorize any United States naval vessel or activity to 
furnish any of the following supplies or services, when in the best 
interests of the United States, on a reimbursable basis without an 
advance of funds if similar supplies and services are furnished on a 
like basis to naval vessels and military aircraft of the United States 
by the foreign country concerned:
        (1) Routine port services in territorial waters of the United 
    States or in waters under United States control, including pilotage, 
    tugs, garbage removal, line-handling, and utilities, to naval 
    vessels of foreign countries.
        (2) Routine airport services, including landing and takeoff 
    assistance, use of runways, parking and servicing, to military 
    aircraft of foreign countries.
        (3) Miscellaneous supplies, including fuel, provisions, spare 
    parts, and general stores, but not including ammunition, to naval 
    vessels and military aircraft of foreign countries.
        (4) Overhauls, repairs, and alterations together with necessary 
    equipment and its installation required in connection therewith, to 
    naval vessels and military aircraft of foreign countries.

    (b)(1) Routine port and airport services may be furnished under this 
section at no cost to the foreign country concerned where such services 
are provided by United States naval personnel and equipment without 
direct cost to the Navy.
    (2) When furnishing routine port services under this section to 
naval vessels of a foreign country, the Secretary may furnish such 
services without reimbursement if such services are provided under an 
agreement that provides for the reciprocal furnishing by such country of 
routine port services to naval vessels of the United States without 
reimbursement. When furnishing routine airport services under this 
section to military aircraft of a foreign country, the Secretary may 
furnish such services without reimbursement if such services are 
provided under an agreement that provides for the reciprocal furnishing 
by such country of routine airport services to military aircraft of the 
United States without reimbursement.
    (3) If routine port or airport services are furnished under this 
section by a working-capital fund activity of the Navy established under 
section 2208 of this title and such activity is not reimbursed directly 
for the costs incurred by the activity in furnishing those services by 
reason of paragraph (2), the working-capital fund activity shall be 
reimbursed for such costs out of operating funds currently available to 
the Navy.
    (c) Payments for supplies and services furnished under this section 
may be credited to current appropriations so as to be available for the 
same purpose as the appropriation initially charged.
