Drugs, biologicals, and reagents other than controlled substances—

(a) May be transferred to another Federal agency for official purposes.

(b) Must be clearly identified when they are unfit for human use and destroyed, with destruction performed by an agency employee and witnessed and certified by two additional representatives of your agency. Destruction of this property held by a SASP or donee must be destroyed by a SASP employee and witnessed by two additional SASP employees.

(c) Donating to a SASP requires certification from the donee indicating that the items will be managed in accordance with Federal, State, and local laws and regulations. Surplus drugs, biologicals, and reagents requested for donation by State agencies will not be transported by the State agency or stored in its warehouse prior to distribution to donees. Arrangements will be made by the SASP for the donee to make direct pickup at the holding agency after approval by GSA and after notification by the holding agency that the property is ready for pickup. Additionally, the Standard Form (SF) 123 will not be approved by GSA until it has been determined by GSA that the donee is legally licensed to administer, dispense, store, or distribute such property. A copy of the donee's license, registration, or other legal authorization to administer, dispense, store, or distribute such property should be attached to the SF 123.

(d) Must be unexpired and sold in accordance with rules published by the Food and Drug Administration. You may sell only to those entities legally qualified to engage in the sale, manufacture or distribution of such items. Certification or evidence of licensing must accompany the bids. An entity is legally qualified when a Federal or State agency having legal or regulatory oversight over that commodity has approved the entity to engage in the designated activity.
