Full text
You may abandon or destroy excess personal property when an authorized official of your agency has made a written determination that the property has no commercial value or the estimated cost of its continued care and handling would exceed the estimated proceeds from its sale. It must be approved by a reviewing official who is not directly accountable for the property. An item has no commercial value when it has neither utility nor monetary value as an item or scrap.
Legislative history
This is a federal regulation, adopted through agency rulemaking under the Administrative Procedure Act — not enacted by a recorded vote of Congress.
