Property Destruction

Property Destruction is authorized when it is in the state’s best interest for the entity to destroy the property on-site. The request and approval for authorization must occur prior to destruction. Authorizations “after-the-fact” will not be issued.

These transactions are authorized by the Surplus Property administration staff through the issuance of an “AD” number. The “AD” number enables the entity to remove the property from inventory.

The Affidavit of Destruction form must be submitted to the Surplus Property administration staff after the property has been destroyed.
