§ 102-37.220 Abandonment or destruction of undistributed surplus property.

(a) You may abandon or destroy undistributed surplus property when you have made a written finding 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. The abandonment or destruction finding must be sent to GSA for approval. You must include: (1) The basis for the abandonment or destruction; (2) A detailed description of the property, its condition, and total acquisition cost; (3) The proposed method of destruction or the abandonment location; (4) A statement confirming that the proposed abandonment or destruction will not be detrimental or dangerous to public health, public safety, or national security, and will not infringe on the rights of other persons; and (5) The signature of the SASP director. (b) GSA will notify you within 30 calendar days of receipt of the request whether you may abandon or destroy the property. GSA will provide alternate disposition instructions if it disapproves your request for abandonment or destruction.
