If the Controller, by reason of the notice described in Section 3375 of the Revenue and Taxation Code or by reason of information from any other source, determines that all amounts owing under Article 1 (commencing with Section 16180) of this chapter have become due and payable pursuant to Section 16190, the Controller may, in addition to the options provided in Section 16200, take any of the following actions which will best serve the interest of the state: (a) The Controller may demand payment of such amount from any person liable therefor.

(c) The Controller may direct the Department of General Services to sell such property pursuant to Chapter 4.5 (commencing with Section 14735) of Part 5.5 of Division 3 of this title or, if applicable, Division 9 (commencing with Section 9101) of the Commercial Code.
