Sec. 101-25.109  Laboratory and research equipment.



    (a) This section prescribes controls for use by Federal agencies in 

managing laboratory and research equipment in Federal laboratories. 

Agencies may establish such additional controls as are appropriate to 

increase the use of already-owned equipment instead of procuring similar 

equipment.

    (b) The term Federal laboratory, as used in this section, means any 

laboratory or laboratory facility in any Government-owned or -leased 

building which is equipped and/or used for scientific research, testing, 

or analysis, except clinical laboratories operating in direct support of 

Federal health care programs. To the extent practicable, agencies should 

observe the provisions of this section with regard to commercial 

laboratories and laboratory facilities which operate under contract with 

the Government and use Government-furnished equipment.
