Yes, you are not required to provide public notice when:
(a) The value of the property is so little or the cost of its care and handling, pending abandonment/destruction, is so great that its retention for advertising for sale, even as scrap, is clearly not economical;
(b) Abandonment or destruction is required because of health, safety, or security reasons; or
(c) When the original acquisition cost of the item (estimated if unknown) is less than $500. [65 FR 31218, May 16, 2000, as amended at 65 FR 34983, June 1, 2000]
