114-60.600 -- Government Ownership Identification Markings
Non-expendable Government property except that exempted by IPMD 114-60.601,
shall be marked to identify it as Government-owned. Marking shall consist of

"U.S." The property number must begin with the Bureau letter designation
as shown below:

Motor vehicles shall be marked in accordance with FPMR and IPMD requirements.
(a) Very small, or delicate apparatus, which cannot be marked without damage to the property, is exempted from marking or numbering. However, the numbers assigned to items of system-controlled property exempted in accordance with this section, shall be recorded on the property accountability records. (see Subpart 114-60.2.)
(b) Because permanent marking of museum property is potentially damaging, items in museum collections are exempted from the marking requirements of this Subpart. Bureaus/offices having museum collections will develop and implement procedures for identification and safeguarding of museum collections.
