# ACTION:

 Notice of a bulletin.

# SUMMARY:

 The attached bulletin reminds Fleet programs of Federal agencies that when replacing agency-owned vehicles under the Exchange/Sale provisions of the Federal Management Regulation (FMR), sale proceeds are retainable as provided under and in compliance with those provisions for purchasing replacement vehicles.  As a source of funding for replacement vehicles additional to other Fleet program funding, the availability of sale proceeds should not be overlooked.

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
