§ 101-43.311-2 - Nonreportable property.

(a) Property excepted from the reporting requirements of § 101-43.304 shall become surplus when it has been made available by the holding agency for Federal use for a minimum of 21 calendar days after excess determination and has not been selected for transfer to other Federal agencies. Holding agencies shall annotate property records in a manner that will indicate to authorized Federal agency representatives the date of the excess determination. The property will become surplus at the close of business on the surplus release date, which normally will occur 21 calendar days after the holding agency determines the property to be available for screening as excess unless extended by GSA. Authorized Federal agency representatives may request and, with the approval of GSA, holding agencies will grant additional time not to exceed 30 calendar days, unless otherwise agreed upon by the holding agency and the GSA regional office concerned. The release as surplus of property not transferred to other Federal agencies will be deferred by the same lengths of time.

(b) During the screening period following the determination that the property is excess, no holding agency shall take for its use any property in its custody which has been selected by a GSA area utilization officer for further screening or transfer for utilization, except with the approval of the appropriate GSA regional office; provided that holding activities may withdraw such property to meet their essential emergency requirements without this prior approval. The appropriate GSA regional office shall be notified of any such actions.

(c) This section is applicable to all nonreportable excess property other than perishables, dangerous property, classified property, trading stamps, and Nuclear Regulatory Commission-controlled materials.
