A. General Instructions:

Tangible personal property means property of any kind, except real property, that has physical existence. It includes equipment and supplies. It does not include copyrights, patents or securities. For convenience, throughout this form and its attachments, the term property will be synonymous with tangible personal property. The terms equipment and supplies will be used when referring to specific requirements.

Property may be provided by the awarding agency or acquired by the recipient with award funds. Federally-owned property consists of items that were furnished by the Federal government.

Recipients of Federal assistance awards may be required to provide Federal awarding agencies with information concerning property in their custody annually, at award closeout or when the property is no longer needed. Specific requirements will vary based on award provisions, the type of property (equipment or supplies) and whether the property is Federally-owned. This reporting form and its attachments are intended to assist recipients to provide necessary information when it is required.
