Report of Survey

Lesson 4/Learning Event 4

c. For the ARNG, state Adjutant Generals (AG) may authorize the

reporting of repair costs using the property accountability management

information system (PAMIS) reporting procedures per National Guard Bureau

Memorandum (NGBM) 700-1, Chapter 18.

2.

If liability is admitted and the extent of

damage does not exceed the

responsible person's monthly basic pay, prepare

DD Form 362 (Statement of

Charges for Government Property Lost, Damaged or

Destroyed) or DD Form 1131

(Cash Collection Voucher). See Figures 47 and 48

on pages 150 and 151.

3.

If liability is admitted and the extent of damage exceeds the person's

monthly basic pay, initiate a report of survey.

4.

If negligence or misconduct is involved and liability is not admitted,

initiate a report of survey (discussed in the next paragraph).

a. In no case will separate reports of survey be prepared for the same

incident unless the damaged property is recorded on separate property

accounts.

b. When the report of survey is approved or when the property is

released by the survey officer, attach a copy of the report of survey or the

survey officer's release statement to the maintenance request. If the item

is not economically repairable, attach a copy of the approved report of

survey, or the survey officer's release statement, and a copy of the

maintenance request classifying the item to the turn-in document. Damaged

property for which negligence or misconduct is suspected will not be

repaired or disposed of, or continued in use, until the survey officer

prepares a release statement.

REPORT OF SURVEY

The rest of this learning event outlines the procedures for processing DA

Form 4697 (Department of the Army Report of Survey) and/or conducting an AR

15-6 investigation. Liability for damage to property, whether by negligence

or misconduct, is resolved by the report of survey.

This section gives

general guidance to those persons who are initiating reports or

investigations, when negligence or misconduct is suspected and liability is

not admitted.
