fair market value of the property;

ii.

The Grantee may be directed to sell the property under guidelines
provided by the Agency and pay the Federal government an amount
computed by applying the Federal percentage of participation in the
cost of the original Project to the proceeds from sale (after deducting
actual and reasonable selling and fix-up expenses, if any, from the
sales proceeds). When the Grantee is authorized or required to sell
the property, proper sales procedures shall be established that
provide for competition to the extent practical and result in the
highest possible return;

iii.

The Grantee may be directed to transfer title to the property to the
Federal government provided that in such cases the Grantee shall be
entitled to compensation computed by applying the Grantee's
percentage of participation in the cost of the program or Project to

5

Form RD 3570-3

d. Use of equipment. The Grantee shall use the equipment in the Project for

which it was acquired as long as needed. When no longer needed for the original
project, the Grantee shall use the equipment in connection with its other
federally sponsored activities, if any, in the following order of priority:
i.

Activities sponsored by the Agency.

ii.

Activities sponsored by other Federal agencies.

b. Use of equipment. During the time that equipment is held for use on the project
for which it was acquired, the Grantee shall make it available for use on other
projects if such other use will not interfere with the work on the project for
which the property was originally acquired. First preference for such other use
shall be given to the Agency sponsored projects. Second preference will be
given to other federally sponsored projects.
c. Disposition of equipment. When the Grantee no longer needs the property as
provided in paragraph 1 (a) and (b) above, the equipment may be sold or used
for other activities in accordance with 2 C.F.R. § 200.313 and 7 C.F.R.
§15.4(a)(3) :
i.

Equipment with a current fair market value of less than $5,000. The
Grantee may use the property for other activities without
reimbursement to the Federal government or sell the property and
retain the proceeds.

ii.

Equipment with a current fair market value of $5,000 or more. The
Grantee may retain the property for other uses provided that
compensation is made to the Agency. The amount of compensation
shall be computed by applying the percentage of Federal
participation in the cost of the original Project to the current fair
market value of the property. If the Grantee has no need for the
equipment and the equipment has further use value, the Grantee shall
request disposition instructions from the Agency.

iii.

The Agency shall determine whether the equipment can be used to
meet RHS or its successor agency's requirements. If no such
requirements exist, the availability of the property shall be reported,
in accordance with the guidelines of the Federal Property
Management Regulations (FPMR), to the General Services
Administration by the Agency to determine whether a requirement
for the equipment exists in other Federal agencies. They shall issue
instructions to the Grantee no later than 120 days after the Grantee's
request and the following procedures shall govern:

6

Form RD 3570-3

•

If so instructed or if disposition instructions are not issued
within 120 calendar days after the Grantee's request, the
Grantee shall sell the equipment and reimburse the Agency an
amount computed by applying to the sales proceeds the
percentage of Federal participation in the cost of the original
project or program. However, the Grantee shall be permitted to
deduct and retain from the Federal share 10 percent of the
proceeds or $500, whichever is less, for the Grantee's selling
and handling expenses.

•

If the Grantee is instructed to ship the property elsewhere, the
Grantee shall be reimbursed by the benefiting Federal agency
with an amount which is computed by applying the percentage
of the Grantee participation in the cost of the original grant
Project or program to the current fair market value of the
equipment plus any reasonable shipping or interim storage
costs incurred.

•

If the Grantee is instructed to otherwise dispose of the
equipment, the Grantee shall be reimbursed by the Agency for
such costs incurred in its disposition.

d. The Grantee's property management standards for equipment shall be in accordance

Property records which accurately provide for: a description of the
equipment; manufacturer's serial number or other identification number;

which the equipment was acquired; location, use, and condition of the
equipment and the date the information was reported; and ultimate
disposition data including sales price, or the method used to determine
current fair market value if the Grantee reimburses the Agency for its
share.

ii.

A physical inventory of equipment shall be taken, and the results reconciled
with the equipment records at least once every two years to verify the
existence, current utilization, and continued need for the equipment.

iii.

A control system shall be in effect to ensure adequate safeguards to prevent
loss, damage, or theft of the equipment. Any loss, damage, or theft of
equipment shall be investigated and fully documented.

iv.

Adequate maintenance procedures shall be implemented to keep the
equipment in good condition.
