When during the useful life of property acquired with project funds under this Interlocal Agreement by the FUNDS RECIPIENT and with a current per -unit fair market value of $5,000 or more, the property is no longer needed for the originally authorized purpose, the FUNDS RECIPIENT agrees to request disposition instructions from the TCEQ. When property acquired by a FUNDS RECIPIENT with project funds provided by the TCEQ under this Interlocal Agreement is no longer needed for the originally authorized purpose, the FUNDS RECIPIENT agrees that this Interlocal Agreement will require the NCTCOG to request disposition instructions from the FUNDS RECIPIENT or, if the NCTCOG is no longer administering a Regional Solid Waste Implementation Project Program, the TCEQ. The NCTCOG shall, in turn, request authorization from the TCEQ to provide disposition instructions to the FUNDS RECIPIENT. Disposition instructions shall solicit, at a minimum, information on the source and amount of funds used in acquiring the property, the date acquired, the fair market value and how the value was determined (e.g., by appraisal, bids, etc.), and the proposed use of the proceeds. The assessment of whether to authorize the proposed disposition of the property must include a determination that the disposition plan will comply with the private industry provisions of §361.014(b) of the Texas Health Safety Code Annotated. In cases where the FUNDS RECIPIENT fails to take appropriate disposition actions, the TCEQ may direct the NCTCOG to take excess and disposition actions. The disposition instructions may provide for one of the alternatives as set forth in this Section. Retain title, sell, or otherwise disposed of with no obligation to compensate the TCEQ or, in the case of a FUNDS RECIPIENT. Retain title after compensating the TCEQ or, in the case of a implementation project funding recipient, the NCTCOG. If the NCTCOG is compensated by a FUNDS RECIPIENT for property acquired using funds provided under this Interlocal Agreement, the NCTCOG will in turn compensate the TCEQ or, upon authorization by the TCEQ, use those funds for other projects or activities that support this or similar future programs conducted by the TCEQ. The amount due will be computed by applying the percentage of state -funded participation in the cost of the original purchase to the fair market value of the property. Sell the property and compensate the TCEQ or, in the case of project funding recipient, the NCTCOG. If the NCTCOG is compensated by a FUNDS RECIPIENT for property acquired using funds provided under this Interlocal Agreement, the NCTCOG will in turn compensate the TCEQ or, upon authorization by the TCEQ, use those funds for other projects or activities that support the goals of this or similar future programs conducted by the TCEQ. The amount due will be calculated by applying the TCEQ percentage of participation in the cost of the original purchase to the proceeds of the sale after deduction of any actual and reasonable selling and fixing -up expenses. If the project is still active, the net proceeds from sale may be offset against the original cost of the property. When the FUNDS RECIPIENT is directed to sell property, sales procedures shall be followed that provide for competition to the extent practicable and result in the highest possible return. 17 Grant Project Number 10-04=G04 City of Fort Worth Sports Complex Project Transfer title to the TCEQ or, in the case of an implementation project funds recipient, the NCTCOG, or to a third -party designated/approved by the TCEQ.
