Page 20 of the property; and ultimate disposition data including sales price or the method used to determine current fair market value if the grantee reimburses the grantor agency for its share. b. A physical inventory of property shall be taken and the results reconciled with the property records are least once every two years to verify the existence, current utilization, and continued need for the property. c. A control system shall be in effect to insure adequate safeguards to prevent loss, damage, or theft to the property. Any loss, damage, or theft of nonexpendable property shall be investigated and fully documented. d. Adequate maintenance procedures shall be implemented to keep the property in good condition. e. Proper sales procedures shall be established for unneeded property which would provide for competition to the extent practicable and result in the highest possible return. 6. When the total inventory value of any unused expendable personal property exceeds $500 at the expiration of need for any Federal grant purposes, the grantee may retain the property or sell the property as long as he compensates the Federal Government for its share in the cost. The amount of compensation shall be computed in accordance with 4.a.(2)(b). 7. Specified standards for control of intangible property are provided as follows: a. If any program produces patentable items, patent rights, processes, or inventions, in the course of work aided by a Federal grant, such fact shall be promptly and fully reported to the grantor agency. Unless there is prior agreement between the grantee and grantor on disposition of such items, the grantor agency shall determine whether protection on such invention or discovery shall be sought and how the rights in the invention or discovery -- including rights under any patent issued thereon - - shall be allocated and administered in order to protect the public interest consistent with "Government Patent Policy" (President's Memorandum for Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies, August 23, 1971, and Statement of Government Patent Policy as printed in 36 F.R. 16889). b. Where the grant results in a book or copyrightable material, the author or grantee is free to copyright the work, but the Federal grantor agency reserves a royalty-free, non-exclusive and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish, or otherwise use, and to authorize others to use the work for Government purposes.
