The commissioner may delegate to any officer or employee of his department such of his powers as he may deem necessary to carry out efficiently the provisions of this act, including the power to appraise and assess any or all property in railroad use, and the person or persons to whom such power has been delegated shall possess and may exercise all of the power and perform all of the duties herein conferred and imposed upon the commissioner.
