The attached table provides guidance regarding whether an existing Afghanistan Security Forces Fund (ASFF) obligation requires corrective action, based on the date an ASFF obligation was incurred. The table provides guidance as to how to apportion expenses between the ASFF appropriation and the military department responsible for disposition of the ASFF-funded property, now treated as DoD stocks.
In accordance with reference (a), Implementing Agencies will not process any new ASFF-funded procurements or make any new ASFF obligations with any ASFF funding for equipment treated as DoD stocks. ASFF funds are available for equitable adjustments or contingent liabilities related to ASFF obligations properly incurred before the date ASFF-funded property is treated as DoD Stocks. In accordance with reference (b), when an ASFF case is reduced in scope or cancelled, the below-the-line Administrative Surcharge is adjusted downward.
