6、 requirements of governmental laws and regulations. However, thispractice enables an entity to align or integrate applicable governmental laws and regulations with its own requirements.1.7.1 When disposing of property owned by another entity, entities must adhere to contractual requirements of the o

Terminology3.1 DefinitionsFor definitions of additional terms, refer to Terminology E2135.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 abandonment, nto give up all and any future claim to rights or interest in pe
18、rsonal property.3.2.2 destruction, nthe process of ruining the structure, organic existence, or physical condition of personal property renderingit unusable for its intended design or function.3.2.3 recycling, vprocessing property and materials (scrap/waste) into new materials or products to prevent
19、 waste ofpotentially useful materials.3.2.4 reutilization, ntransferring or reassigning personal property within an entity.4. Summary of Practice4.1 Entities will determine disposal methods in accordance with this practice using terminology cited in Terminology E2135.5. Significance and Use5.1 Conti
20、nuing emphasis by interested stakeholders demands that an entity dispose of surplus personal property in the mosteconomical and efficient manner possible.5.2 The selection of the disposal method may depend on regulatory, environmental, or safety concerns.5.3 Apersonal property disposal program shoul
21、d be conducted in a manner consistent with the entitys requirements, goals, andobjectives.6. Management of Surplus Personal Property6.1 Entities shall establish policies and implement accountability systems to manage the disposal of surplus personal property.6.2 Property management systems should be
22、 designed to identify underutilized equipment, rental/lease periods nearingexpiration, etc., to assist in determining what property may no longer be required by an entity.6.3 Surplus personal property capable of storing electronic data should be sanitized prior to disposal to eliminate the possiblel
23、oss of control of data characterized by negative societal, safety, or security impact. NIST 80088 describes practices to clean harddrives and other storage devices in order to protect sensitive data and maximize reuse potential by using the least destructivesanitization procedures wherever appropria
24、te. The physical removal of hard drives or other data storage components prior todisposal should usually be considered as a last resort. Follow your entities sanitization processes, policies, and procedures.6.4 The disposal of surplus personal property may involve the following methods: donation, re
25、cycling, sale, destruction,abandonment or any other appropriate method authorized by the property owner.6.5 Entities should assure that they have sufficient rights to dispose of property prior to initiating disposal actions.7. Donation of Surplus Personal Property7.1 Entities should establish donati
26、on programs that comply with applicable entity processes, policies, and procedures. Donationprograms should enable donation of surplus property directly to eligible entities with the least amount of administrative effort/costs.Care must be used to ensure donations stand up to public scrutiny.7.2 The
27、 donation of surplus property to non-profits or similar entities can meet disposal needs and bring goodwill to the donatingentity.7.3 Governmental entities must determine eligibility in accordance with the applicable federal statutes and regulations. EachU.S. state and territory has a StateAgency fo
28、r Surplus Property (SASP). These agencies were established to receive federal surpluspersonal property and to donate it to public agencies and certain non-profit, tax-exempt agencies. The General ServicesAdministration (GSA) has the responsibility of administering this program and has issued regulat
29、ions for its implementation.8. Recycling Surplus Personal Property8.1 Recycling should be considered prior to declaring property as having disposal or sale value for material content only.8.2 Consider the recycling of salvage and scrap materials after destruction.8 Available from Environment Directo

An effectiverecycling
31、 program decreases material entering the waste stream and is sometimes required by statute or law.8.4 Recyclers should be certified to comply with ISO 14001. Recycling certifications for electronic equipment disposal includethe R2 Standard, the e-Stewards Standard, WEEE Directive, or RoHS Directive,
32、 or a combination thereof.9. Sale of Surplus Property9.1 Property determined to be no longer needed by the owning entity may be considered for sale.9.2 Entities should determine the most economical method to sell surplus property.9.2.1 Sales should be planned and conducted in a manner that will maxi
33、mize benefits and minimize risk to the entity.9.2.2 When planning and conducting sales, entities should consider property characteristics, location, anticipated market,duration of the sale and anticipated proceeds versus anticipated cost to conduct the sale.9.2.3 Entities should consider other metho
34、ds of disposal whenever anticipated cost of sale exceeds anticipated proceeds of thesale.9.3 Records must be updated to reflect the sale and that the property is no longer available.9.4 Entities should ensure all necessary documentation such as Certificates of Origin, maintenance records, vehicle ti
35、tles, etc.,for the proper transfer of ownership to the successful buyer are available. Documents such as vehicle titles, bills of sale, etc., shouldbe authenticated by an authorized official of the selling entity (when required) and copies maintained as appropriate for audit trailpurposes.9.5 Entiti
36、es offering items considered sensitive or that may have other societal, safety or security implications should ensure allnecessary precautions are completed or in place prior to the sale.9.6 Consider the sale of salvage and scrap materials after destruction.10. Destruction or Abandonment of Surplus
37、Personal Property10.1 Surplus personal property that has not been otherwise disposed of should be considered for destruction or abandonment.10.2 Destruction or abandonment of personal property must be fully documented and provide an audit trail.10.3 In establishing justifications for destruction or
38、abandonment actions, entities should conclude that property be destroyedor abandoned for safety reasons or by law or a contractual arrangement and cannot be disposed of via another disposal method.10.4 Destruction or abandonment must be performed in a manner that minimizes environmental impact. The
39、destruction orabandonment of contaminated or hazardous materials must be compliant with applicable governmental laws or regulations.11. Summary11.1 This practice promotes the importance of selecting the best method for the disposal of surplus personal property.11.2 The central objective of this prac
40、tice is to ensure the most efficient, timely, and economical process for disposal of personalproperty is selected.12.
