7.8 Surplus Sales Surplus equipment is any inventory item considered obsolete or unusable by instructional, administrative or physical plant departments. Prior to any item being listed for surplus sale, a review of such items shall be made by the Senior Staff Accountant in the Controller’s Office, Internal Audit Department and Campus administration to determine if there is any value or use for these items. The Campus shall dispose of all items that have been determined to have no further value to the College (broken, unrepairable, etc.). This will insure that only items of value will be sent to the central warehouse for either sale or donation. The detailed procedures for conducting a surplus sale are contained in the "Fixed Asset Policy" manual. SECTION 8: PURCHASE OF GOODS AND SERVICES
