    The Honorable Edward Zorinsky

    United States Senate

    Dear Senator Zorinsky:

         Subject: The General Services Administration's
                    Decision Not To Construct A Federal Building
                    Project In Omaha, Nebraska (GAO/GGD-83-100)

         As you requested, the General Accounting Office has
    reviewed the General Services Administration's (GSA's) decision
    not to construct a new Federal office building in Omaha,
    Nebraska despite the fact that it had earlier determined that
    such a building was needed. The objectives of our review were
    to (1) determine the basis for the 1978 proposal for the
    project, (2) evaluate the information used by GSA officials to
    cancel the project, and (3) determine the appropriateness of
    GSA's decision.

         We interviewed GSA's Public Buildings Service's officials
    and examined files and records related to the project at the GSA
    Central Office in Washington, D.C., and at its Regional Office
    in Kansas City, Missouri, which has management responsibilty for
    GSA matters in Omaha.

         We reviewed how GSA determined and used the various factors
     it considered in arriving at its decision not to construct the
     building in Omaha. This review, which was made from January
     through April 1983, was conducted in accordance with generally
     accepted Government audit standards.




                                                                122549

                                                (945830)
