First of all, I offer no real excuse but would appreciate it if you
would excuse the delay in the receipt of this letter.
I want to thank you and your personnel for the time afforded me on
my June visit. It is this type of reception that makes a contractor's efforts
seem worth while.
On my visit to your facility we reviewed and discussed the residual
inventory on PR8200. The purpose of this review was to determine the dispo-
sition of items no longer essential to the project. As the items outlined in
the "Disposal of Scrap Request" are of no significant value to us, or you as
a customer, these items are so designated as scrap.
In recapitulation, the items denoted as scrap fall into the basic
categories of breadboard and pre-production. The material is further identi-
fied as being: (1) in a state of obsolescence as new design items are being
used, (2) originally fabricated to rough tolerances, (3) usefulness obsoleted
due to shelf life, (4) etc. The cost of disassembling, identifying, and
reinspecting these items to see if there is any product usefulness is pro-
hibited.
Jim, the exceptions for our application of the scrap residual inven-
tory items.are as follows:

In answer to your question, CH does have a Property Administrator
who seeks three bids on all scrapped items. The money received for scrap is
then credited to the contract. Naturally every precaution will be taken to
declassify these items prior to scrapping.
I am looking forward to your acknowledgement of this letter and a
formal close-out of our inventory.
We are preparing for your September visit and feel our property
accountability will meet with your satisfaction.
Respectfully yours,
