What are all persons entrusted with Government property responsible for?

When someone is entrusted with government property, they act as a steward for that asset through its whole life cycle. That means using the property for official purposes only, keeping it in good condition and performing necessary maintenance, maintaining physical control and protecting it from loss or damage, and following formal procedures to return, transfer, or dispose of it when it’s no longer needed. This complete set—use, care, custody, safekeeping, and disposition—covers the full range of duties required to safeguard and properly manage government property. Other options only touch on parts of this duty or describe outcomes, but they don’t capture the full, hands-on responsibilities involved.
