§ 101-43.301 - Federal Government procedure.

The first source of supply is excess personal property, which shall be used by executive agencies to the fullest extent practicable as prescribed in this part. A requirement for personal property expressed by an authorized Federal activity identified in § 101-43.309-1 shall supersede any disposal action. This means that Federal transfers may be accomplished for surplus property if the holding or selling agency is notified prior to shipment or delivery of donated property or prior to actual removal of property from Government control in the case of sale.
