6.  Terminating Appointments.

The initiator of a warrant termination, normally the supervisor of the CO, shall request termination of a warrant whether for cause, reassignment or employment termination using the Contracting Officer Appointment/Warrant Eligibility Transfer/Termination Request template. If the CO is transferring to another AF contracting office and will require a warrant in the new position, the gaining SCO/SCCO will request the SCO/SCCO's focal point or designee to obtain the documentation supporting warrant eligibility transfer from the losing SCO/SCCO (the warrant must be terminated by the losing SCO/SCCO and a new SF 1402 issued by the gaining SCO/SCCO or designee). The Contracting Officer Appointment/Warrant Eligibility Transfer/Termination Request template must be completed by the SCO/SCCO focal point or designee for termination and for warrant eligibility transfers, and submitted to the SCO/SCCO or designee for signature in the space provided. The completed template will be returned to the SCO/SCCO's focal point or designee for file retention (hard copy or electronic) for a reasonable amount of time to facilitate any future warrant reinstatement.
