Summary

Federal Property Asset Management Reform Act of 2002 - Amends the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 to direct the Administrator of General Services to establish: (1) maintain, and apply current asset management principles to real and personal property; (2) performance measures to determine Federal real property management effectiveness; and (3) and maintain a single database of all Federal real property interests. Requires each Federal landholding agency to appoint a Senior Real Property Officer to monitor and administer real property assets.

Permits a Federal agency to retain proceeds from the sale of personal property to recover the full costs incurred in disposing of such property. Provides for: (1) the crediting of monetary proceeds from the disposition of real and related personal property to existing agency accounts to pay for capital asset expenditures of that agency; and (2) implementation of such disposal and accounting requirements for FY 2003-2007.

Authorizes the: (1) conveyance of surplus Federal property to non-profit organizations for preservation purposes, and generally for public airport use; and (2) abandonment, destruction, or other disposal of property if it has no commercial value, or if costs of continued care and handling would exceed its fair market value.
