------------------------------------------------------------------------
II. Executive Order 12866
This is not a significant regulatory action and, therefore, is not
subject to review under section 6(b) of Executive Order 12866,
Regulatory Planning and Review, dated September 30, 1993. This is not a
major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804.
III. Regulatory Flexibility Act
DoD does not expect this proposed rule to have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities within the
meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq.,
because the proposed rule imposes no new requirements on small
businesses. It makes no significant change to DoD policy regarding the
management of Government property in the possession of contractors.
Therefore, DoD has not performed an initial regulatory flexibility
analysis. DoD invites comments from small businesses and other
interested parties on the expected impact of this rule on small
entities.
DoD also will consider comments from small entities concerning the
affected DFARS subparts in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 610. Such comments
should be submitted separately and should cite DFARS Case 2009-D008.
IV. Paperwork Reduction Act
The information collection requirements of the Defense Federal
Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) part 245, Government
Property, related clauses in DFARS part 252, and related forms in DFARS
part 253, have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) under OMB Control Number 0704-0246. No new information collection
requirements are imposed by this proposed rule.
List of Subjects in 48 CFR Parts 201, 245, and 252
Government procurement.
Ynette R. Shelkin,

the inventory schedules.
245.602-3 Screening.
Property will be screened DoD-wide, including the contracting
agency, requiring agency and, as appropriate, the General Services
Administration. The requiring agency shall have priority for retention
of listed items. All required screening must be completed before any
surplus contractor inventory sale can take place. The plant clearance
officer shall arrange for inspection of property at the contractor's
plant if requested by a prospective transferee, in such a manner as to
avoid interruption of the contractor's operations.
245.602-70 Plant clearance procedures.
Follow the procedures at PGI 245.602-70 for establishing and
processing a plant clearance case.

Plant clearance officers shall use the following procedures for the
sale of surplus property:

and
(D) Past sale history for like or similar items.
(ii) Approve award to the responsible bidder whose bid is most
advantageous to the Government. The plant clearance officer shall not
approve award to any bidder who is not eligible to enter into a
contract with DoD due to inclusion on the Excluded Parties List System.
If a compelling reason exists to award to a bidder on the excluded
list, the plant clearance officer shall request approval from the
contracting officer.
(iii) Notify the contractor of the bidder to whom an award will be
made within five working days from receipt of bids.
(3) Noncompetitive sales.

officer determines that this method is essential to expeditious plant
clearance; and
(B) The Government's interests are adequately protected.
(ii) Noncompetitive sales shall be at fair and reasonable prices,
not less than those reasonably expected under competitive sales.
(iii) Conditions justifying non-competitive sales are--

(B) Anticipated proceeds do not warrant competitive sale;
(C) Specialized nature of the property would not create bidder
interest;
(D) Removal of the property would reduce its value or result in
disproportionate handling expenses; or
(E) Such action is essential to the Government's interests.

(B) B--New, used, repaired, or reconditioned property;
serviceable and issuable or for its intended purpose but restricted
from issue to specific units, activities, or geographical areas
because of its limited usefulness or short service-life expectancy;
includes material and remaining shelf life of three to six months.
(C) F--Economically reparable property which requires repair,
overhaul or reconditioning; includes reparable items which are
radioactively contaminated.
(D) H--Property which has been determined to be unserviceable

(2) The sales contract or other document forbids exports by
purchasers and subpurchasers to Communist areas (FAR 25.702) or
other prohibited destinations; and
(3) Sale or other disposition of foreign inventory by the
contractor, including sale to foreign governments, requires that the
sales contract or other document transferring title include the
following certificate:
``The Purchaser certifies that the property covered by this
contract will be used in (name of country). In the event of resale
or export by the Purchaser of any of the property acquired at a

clearance officer concurrence, when determined to be effective and
efficient.
(ii) Once approved by the property administrator, the plant
clearance officer may authorize routine disposal of scrap.

(i) The Contractor shall require all buyers of scrap to sign a
DD Form 1639, Scrap Warranty.
(ii) The Contracting Officer may release the Contractor from the
terms of the scrap warranty in return for consideration paid to the

(B) A fair and reasonable price for the material if it had been
sold for purposes other than scrap.
(iii) The Contractor shall pay the consideration to the
Government and the Government may execute the release even though
the contract containing the warranty was not made directly with the
Government.
(iv) If the scrap is resold to a second buyer, the first buyer
shall obtain a scrap warranty from the second buyer. Upon receipt of
the second buyer's scrap warranty, the Government will release the
first buyer from liability under the original warranty.
(k) Disposal of contractor inventory for NATO cooperative
projects.
(1) North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) cooperative
project agreements may include disposal provisions of jointly
acquired property without regard to any applicable disposal laws of

the plant clearance officer prior to soliciting bids from other
prospective bidders.
(2) The Contractor shall solicit a sufficient number of bidders
to obtain adequate competition and use formal invitations for bid,
unless the plant clearance officer approves use of informal bid
procedures. The Contractor shall include in its invitation for bids,
the sales terms and conditions provided by the plant clearance
officer.
(3) The Contractor shall solicit bids at least 15 calendar days
before bid opening to allow adequate opportunity to inspect property
and prepare bids.
(4) For large sales, the Contractor may use summary lists of
items offered as bid sheets with detailed descriptions attached.
(5) In addition to mailing or delivering notice of the proposed
sale to prospective bidders, the Contractor may (when the results
are expected to justify the additional expense) display a notice of
the proposed sale in appropriate public places, e.g., publish a
sales notice in appropriate trade journals or magazines and local
newspapers.
(6) When the acquisition cost of the property to be sold at one
time, in one place, is $250,000 or more, the Contractor shall send a
notice of the proposed sale to FedBizOpps (http://www.fbo.gov).
(7) The plant clearance officer or representative will witness
the bid opening. Within two working days after bid opening, the
Contractor will submit to the plant clearance officer, either
electronically or manually, two copies of the bid abstract.
(8) When demilitarization of property is required, whether on or
off contractor or Government premises, the sales contract must
include the following provisions:
(i) Demilitarization. Item(s) -------- require demilitarization
by the Purchaser. Insert item number(s) and specific
demilitarization requirements for item(s) shown in Defense
Demilitarization Manual, DoD 4160.21-M-1, edition in effect as of
the date of this contract.
(ii) Demilitarization on Government or non-Government premises.
Property requiring demilitarization shall be demilitarized by the
Purchaser under the supervision of qualified Department of Defense
personnel. Property requiring demilitarization shall not be removed,
and title shall not pass to the Purchaser, until demilitarization
has been accomplished and verified by a Government representative.
Demilitarization will be accomplished as specified in the contract.
The Purchaser agrees to assume all costs incident to the
demilitarization and to restore the working area to its present
condition after removing the demilitarized property.
(iii) Failure to demilitarize. If the Purchaser fails to
demilitarize the property as specified in the contract, the
Contractor may, upon giving ten days written notice from date of
mailing to the Purchaser--
(A) Repossess, demilitarize, and return the property to the
Purchaser. The Purchaser hereby agrees to pay to the Contractor,
prior to the return of the property, all costs incurred by the
Contractor in repossessing, demilitarizing, and returning the
property to the Purchaser.
(B) Repossess, demilitarize, and resell the property, and charge
