Guidelines for GSFC Property Passes

1. For each Item, find the Model number, Manufacturer's Serial Number, the NASA Tag (ECN) number, and the actual (or estimated) cost of the equipment.
2. E-mail this information to the JCA Director, along with the off-base address at which you need the equipment (e.g. home address). The JCA Director will write a memo to the appropriate Property Custodian at GSFC, confirming you are a UMBC employee, and requesting permission for you to take the equipment off-base. [In the case of laptops etc, the memo will include a statement to the effect that you wish to also use the equipment while on official travel, meetings etc etc].
3. Obtain a "Transfer/Shipping Request" form from the appropriate Property Custodian at GSFC (currently Wayne Geisbert for Code 600), and fill it out the boxes as follows:
