GAO's Second Biennial Report On The

Transfers Of Federal Personal Property

To Grantees And Other Eligible Organizations



Public Law 94-519, which became effective in 1977,
established, under the direction of the General Serv-
ices Administration, a single system intended to effi-
ciently and equitably distribute the Federal Govern-
ment's excess and surplus personal property to eligible
non-Federal organizations. Property is excess when
it is not needed by the possessing Federal agency but
may be needed by another Federal agency. Excess
property becomes surplus if it is not needed by any
Federal agency.

The act has several objectives, including

   --reducing the volume of transfers to non-Federal
     organizations of excess property that might be
     needed within the Federal Government and

     --encouraging the fair and equitable donation of
     increased amounts of surplus property to meet
     the needs of a wider range of eligible non-
     Federal organizations.

 GAO has found that the act is accomplishing these
 objectives, but makes several recommendations to
 GSA on ways to further improve its program
 administration.
