List the items and dollar amount for each item exceeding $5,000 that you wish to purchase with grant funds.  Equipment is defined as an article of tangible, nonexpendable, personal property, including exempt property, charged directly to the grant, having a useful life of more than one year and an acquisition cost of $5,000 per unit or more. Title to equipment purchased under this grant lies with the government.  It may be transferred to the grantee where such transfer would be more cost effective than recovery of the property by the government.  Grantees wishing to obtain title should contact their contract specialist prior to the project completion for the procedure to follow to make such a request. 

American-made – To the extent possible in keeping with the overall purposes of the program, only American-made equipment and products should be purchased with the funds provided by the financial assistance under DOE Phase I grants.
