§ 101-45.901 - Authority to abandon or destroy.

Property may be abandoned or destroyed by an executive agency in accordance with this subpart when a written determination is made by a duly authorized official 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, except that:

(a) No abandonment or destruction shall be made in a manner which is detrimental or dangerous to public health or safety, or which will cause infringement of the rights of other persons.

(b) In accordance with § 101-44.205(k), a State agency is required to notify the appropriate GSA regional office before taking any abandonment or destruction action. The notification shall include a detailed and accurate description of the property and its condition. If the GSA regional office does not contact the State agency within 30 calendar days, the property may be disposed of under this subpart.

(c) If at any time prior to the actual abandonment or destruction, donation becomes feasible, such procedures will be implemented.
