Personal property which is identified by the Department of General Services as surplus to a state agency’s needs, the determination of which is concurred in by the state agency concerned, shall be sold or otherwise disposed of by the state agency within one year after that identification. The one-year time period for sale or disposition may be extended for good cause upon approval by the department. The proposed method of sale or disposition shall be subject to the approval of the department.

If the surplus personal property is not sold or otherwise disposed of within the one-year period or extension thereof, possession and control of the personal property shall vest in the department, which may then
