DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE SECTION 1033
EXCESS
PROPERTY PROGRAM
1033
Program: The
National Defense Authorization Act authorizes the Secretary of Defense
to transfer excess Department of Defense (DoD) personal property to
federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies with special emphasis
given to counter-drug and counter-terrorism. The 1033
program (formerly the 1208 program) allows law enforcement agencies
to receive DOD excess property.
The Property Utilization Division, through an
Agreement
between the Defense Logistics Agency and the State of Tennessee,
has been charged with administration of the program.
The
Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) defines eligible participants for the
1033 Program as government agencies whose primary function is the
enforcement of applicable Federal, State, and local laws, and whose
compensated full-time law enforcement officers have powers of arrest and
apprehension. All DoD
excess property can be used for counter-drug and other law enforcement
activities with the exception of
the operation of jails. This
applies to all property acquired in the future or any property
previously acquired through the DoD 1033 Program.
The
program allows up to four representatives to be eligible to screen
military bases for excess Department of Defense property suitable for
law enforcement use. Eligible
organizations may participate in this program by paying a fixed fee
based on the number of post sworn officers and having a current
Agreement
and Data
Sheet on file with the
Property Utilization Division. The
fee is assessed annually and is not prorated.
The current fee schedule is as follows:
1-29 Post Sworn Officers
$ 400.00
30-89 Post Sworn Officers
$ 800.00
90-Above Post Sworn Officers
$ 1,000.00
Your
agency will be responsible for any fees assessed by the Federal
Government for acquisition of property in specialty categories such as
weapons (shipping/handling, etc.) or for transportation/shipping
incurred by or passed on by the Property Utilization Division.
SCREENING
Your Screening Authorization Letter will allow as many as 2 of the
authorized screeners to physically screen (search) for excess DoD
property at any of the DRMOs worldwide.
A complete list of all DRMOs with phone/fax numbers and other
information may be found at http://www.drms.dla.mil/html/drmo_sites.html
Internet
screening may be done at http://www.drms.dla.mil.
Property may be tagged by calling the DRMO and, if it is
available, they will tag it for you.
WEAPONS,
APC'S, COMPUTERS & AIRCRAFT
The acquisition of Weapons, APCs, Computers and Aircraft is done using
different procedures than property screened at the DRMOs.
Request procedures are defined at the Section 1033 link of the
LESO web site http://www.dla.mil/j-3/leso. See How to Screen & Request Property.
USE
& DISPOSAL
Any DoD excess property received in the past or future must be placed
into use within one year of receipt, and the property must remain in use
for at least 12 months. You
will be required to complete documentation certifying that the property
has been put into use. The
property is subject at any time for physical inspection by Property
Utilization Staff while under restriction.
PRIOR TO DISPOSAL OF ANY DoD EXCESS PROPERTY, YOU MUST SUBMIT
A WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE STATE COORDINATOR.
The written request must include a copy of the 1348 document that
you received to acquire the property.
When approved, disposal must be done according to state and local
laws, rules, and regulations pertinent to the disposal of public
property. Property
requiring demilitarization must be returned to a DRMO through this
office.
