Reusing salvaged Fuel

Today, my outfit had an AOG with a fuel leak. When it became clear the whole affected tank had to be drained for maintenance, management were not too enthusiastic about ditching 2000 kg of JET A-1 so the question came up if one couldn't just transfer the fuel to another aircraft.

All pilots asked were strictly against it, yet nobody could quote a regulation proscribing the reuse of fuel that was salvaged from another aircraft's tank. Would somebody here be able to quote such a provision?
