                               MEMORANDUM

                                                  December 14, 1995

To:       Administrative Officers

From:     Darlene Sira
          Property Management Officer

Subject:  Change in Property Pass Policy

The Property Pass, Form DI-1934, may now be used for long-term (not to exceed
one year) temporary removal of Government-owned property from USGS facilities.
The authorizing official(s) remain the same, and the property must be returned
before an employee leaves the position occupied at the time of issuance of the
pass.  The preparer should indicate "LONG TERM" on the form.

All other procedures relating to property passes, as set forth in the Property
Management Handbook, Chapter 3, Paragraph 4, remain in effect.  The security
force at the National Center has been advised of this new policy, and the
change will be incorporated in the next revision of the Property Management
Handbook.
