handle is hein.gao/gaocrptanfc0001 and id is 1 raw text is: SGAO Accountability * Integrity * Reliability United States General Accounting Office Washington, DC 20548 March 23, 2001 The Honorable Mike DeWine Chairman The Honorable Mary Landrieu Ranking Member Subcommittee on the District of Columbia Committee on Appropriations United States Senate The Honorable Joe Knollenberg Chairman The Honorable Chaka Fattah Ranking Minority Member Subcommittee on the District of Columbia Committee on Appropriations House of Representatives Subject: District of Columbia: National Museum of American Music The conference report accompanying the District of Columbia Appropriations Act of Fiscal Year 2001 directed us to review the National Museum of American Music (NMAM) proposal targeted for the current Convention Center site in downtown Washington, D.C., and to provide certain information to the Appropriations Committees by April 1, 2001. The NMAM proposal is in the conceptual stage and the Mayor's office has not yet decided on how to use the current Convention Center site once the new Convention Center is ready. Therefore, as agreed with your staff, we obtained information on the status of the NMAM proposal and the decision process of the Convention Center Redevelopment Task Force as well as information currently available related to the four questions in the conference report. On March 1, 2001, we briefed the staff of both of your Subcommittees on the results of our review. Your staff asked us to provide additional information about the use of the $300,000 appropriation for the needs and design study for the proposed NMAM. We have incorporated this information in the briefing slides enclosed with this letter. Also, we agreed to monitor the ongoing events related to the NMAM proposal until the District makes a decision and to keep your offices informed of any major developments.
