Four categories of property require special handling:
GSA has established an office of expertise for each of these categories. These offices assist federal and state agencies with disposition and acquisition. See below for more information, including contact information.
All excess aircraft are reportable to GSA, Pacific Rim Region in San Francisco, CA, regardless of agency, condition, or dollar value. Please see Federal Management Regulations Title 41 Part 102-36.340 and Defense Materiel Disposition Manual, DoD 4160.21M. When reporting an excess aircraft to GSA, agencies should provide the following information on Standard Form 120:
Category of Aircraft | Description |
---|---|
A |
Authorized for sale and exchange for commercial use |
B |
Previously used for ground instruction and/or static display |
C |
Combat configured as determined by DoD |
For additional information on military aircraft, see Defense Materiel Disposition Manual, DoD 4160.21-M. The general policy for military aircraft is that the Defense Logistics Agency Disposition Services shall not screen or report aircraft. The owning Military Service shall screen aircraft with other Military Services and DoD activities, and then report them to the GSA Pacific Rim Region in San Francisco for civil agency and donation screening.
When the designated transfer or donation recipient’s intended use is for nonflight purposes, the agency must remove and return the data plate to the GSA Property Management Branch, Pacific Rim Region, San Francisco, CA, prior to releasing the aircraft to the authorized recipient. GSA will forward the data plate to the FAA.

When reporting a vessel to the appropriate GSA regional office, please indicate the following information and provide the following documentation:
To supplement the standard reporting requirements, GSA recommends the following when disposing military vessels 50 feet or more in length:
In accordance with Section 548 of Title 40, United States Code, the Federal Maritime Administration (FMA), Department of Transportation, is responsible for disposing of surplus vessels determined to be merchant vessels or capable of conversion to merchant use and weighing 1,500 gross tons or more. GSA will forward this information for submission to FMA.
Disposal instructions regarding vessels in this part do not apply to battleships, cruisers, aircraft carriers, destroyers, and submarines.
FMR 102-36 does not stipulate special handling requirements for most animals, so the traditional disposal process typically applies. However, optional methods exist for some species and may be exercised without GSA’s approval or involvement.
40 USC 1308 addresses horses and mules. These animals may be destroyed, but the agency has the option of putting its horses or mules “…out to pasture on a Government or private facility that is “financially sound and reputable.”
Canines are the subject of 41 CFR 102-36.365. The regulations allows for direct donation to an individual “who has experience handling canines in the performance of those official duties.”
Typical processes apply to the disposal of non-human primates, but transfer, donation, and sale documents must address appropriate uses of non-human primates per 42 CFR 71:
Given the limited applications for animals, sale is the typical outcome. In the interest of minimizing administrative costs while targeting a specialized purchaser base, GSA favors negotiated sales.
While the FMR does not stipulate handling requirements for most animals, GSA recommends the following when considering disposal:
Civilian agencies should report their excess animals to the GSA Mid-Atlantic Regional Office in Philadelphia.
