Burton Chairman, Subcommittee on Government Activities and Transportation < Committee on Government Operations _ _ House of Representatives - Subject: GSA's Actions to Acquire Leased Space for the Western Area Power Administration (LCD-80-33) Dear Mr. Chairman: On June 6, 1979, you asked us to review the actions taken by the General Services Administration (GSA) in '7 obtaining office and other space for the Western Area Poweruc2o ,315 Administration's (WAPA's) headquarters in De-ver, Colozrd. -OU specifically asked us to determine (1) what additional lease and remodeling costs, if any, would be incurred by locating WAPA headquarters downtown rather than near the Denver Federal Center, (2) the impact on training and ..research and development missions if WAPA is moved to the downtown area, and (3) whether GSA followed policy, statutory, and regulatory requirements in handling WAPA's request for space. During our review, we looked at GSA region 8 files and discussed the actions and progress on WAPA's request with GSA regional officials and WAPA officials who were directly involved in the space request. In September 1979, GSA's central officb initiated a reevaluation of the steps taken to provide space for WAPA. As suggested in your October 29, 1979, letter, we waited for the outcome of this reevaluation so that we could include these new developments in our report. GSA has not yet decided where WAPA will be located. Therefore we are unable to determine what costs will be attributable to WAPA's new location. If WAPA is moved to downtown Denver it will be farther from the Bureau of Reclamation. We do not believe this move will seriously affect WAPA's ability to carry out its mission. It appears that GSA's handling of WAPA's request for space was generally in compliance with policy, statutory, and regulatory require- ments. 1 S2j ;'t.b (945175)
