Section I – Budget Request 

A – Mission Statement 

Improve infrastructure, modernize business processes, and increase efficiency through 

technology and capital investments that support the missions of Treasury bureaus and programs. 

B – Summary of the Request 

An icon of American architecture, the Main Treasury Building is the third oldest Federal 

building in Washington, after the Capitol and the White House, in continuous use. Unlike the 

Capitol or the White House, the Main Treasury Building is not under the jurisdiction of the 

Architect of the Capitol or GSA, respectively, but rather is the direct responsibility of the 

Treasury Department. The bulk of funding for its care through capital investments is provided 

through Department-wide Systems and Capital Investments Program (DSCIP). 

The Main Treasury Building was built with Congressional appropriations from 1836 to1869. 

From 1909 to 1910, the building received a special appropriation to modernize its infrastructure, 

which helped to bring the building into the 20th century. A major fire in 1996 resulted in a series 

of Congressional appropriations that ushered the Treasury Building into the 21st century. Now, 

25 years later, the building faces a magnitude of issues that need to be addressed, some of which 

pose life safety concerns, including issues related to Treasury and the Freedman’s Bank 

Buildings’ external and internal infrastructure and security posture. 

In FY 2016, Treasury conducted an internal facilities condition assessment of both buildings and 

found a range of needs to be addressed. Problems that were identified include immediate health 

and safety, potential system and mechanical failures, as well as areas in need of building 

modernization to improve efficiency, safety, and security. In FY 2017, an external architectural 

and engineering firm validated an estimated $98.7 million in remaining costs from that report. 

In addition to validating the identified repair needs, the report identified additional repairs and 

cyclic investment needs that are required over the next 20 years to maintain the building in 

adequate working order. 

Treasury’s FY 2022 request reflects a limited subset of those previously identified needs, which 

the Department plans to continue to work to address over time. Treasury will use a three-step 

long-term strategy to continue to maintain and modernize its owned spaces: (1) secure the 

building’s outer envelope; (2) conduct a condition assessment to identify additional needs 

associated with the buildings’ continual aging and deferred maintenance; and (3) based on this 

assessment, conduct an holistic modernization of the building’s systems and infrastructure. 

The FY 2021 Operating Plan prioritized $0.550 million to update the facility condition 

assessment. The FY 2022 request prioritizes work on the outer envelope of the Main Treasury 

Building. 

May 2021, Treasury Departmental Offices provided notification of our intent to reallocate $3.7 

million originally provided as part of the FY 2021 Department-wide Systems and Capital 

Investment Program (DSCIP) appropriation to meet pressing needs associated with the 
DSCIP - 4 

SolarWinds incident. In parallel with this change, DO is realigning currently available DSCIP 

resources towards priority capital facilities investments.

Funds the multiyear building maintenance effort to prevent more expensive repair work. 

Exterior repairs are needed to address weather-related water intrusion which are impacting 

interior spaces, creating the need for water damage remediation and mold control. Work items 

include: 

• Repairing failed masonry joints to protect from moisture penetration, cleaning the stone 

surfaces, and repairing damaged stone; 

• Repairing or replacing window frames suffering varying degrees of damage from years of 

weather exposure. Window work will require scaffolding which is expensive to rent/contract.

Section II – Annual Performance Plan and Report 

A – Strategic Alignment 

The DSCIP account provides a mechanism for Treasury to fund capital investments that have 

complex contracts for projects that span several fiscal years. Through the DSCIP account, 

Treasury has been able to develop a Treasury-wide human resources information technology 

solution, as well as fund the continual repair and restoration of the Main Treasury Building and 

the Freedman’s Bank Building. 

In accordance with the Government Performance and Results Act Modernization Act 

(GPRAMA) of 2010, the Department of the Treasury is currently developing the FY 2022 – 

2026 Departmental Strategic Plan. The Strategic Plan is scheduled for publication in 2022. The 

Annual Performance Plan will be updated in the FY 2023 President’s Budget to reflect new 

departmental strategic goals and objectives.

Treasury Owned Buildings - Repairs and Renovations 

Treasury Operations has continued to strategically focus on restoring the health of the building 

envelope (shell), in an effort to correct the deteriorating building structure and infrastructure. 

Components of the Main Treasury building that have been repaired, replaced, or funded, include 

new roofs FY 2019/2021 and repairs to 40 percent of the windows FY 2015/2017. The 

Freedman’s Bank Building components that have been repaired, replaced, or funded/planned 

include new roofs FY 2017/2019, repair of the domestic water line FY 2020/2022, and 

replacement of all windows FY 2009/2011. Funding and completion of these exterior items 

represent significant progress towards the preservation of the two buildings, maintaining a safe 

and healthy workplace, and reducing damage to the interior plaster and paint. 

The FY 2021 award of the expanded Facility Condition Assessment (FCA) will provide an 

update and validation to the immediate repair needs previously identified that will identify longterm capital expenses based on the expected useful life of the building systems and 
DSCIP - 7 

components. In addition to immediate repairs and long-term needs, the expanded FCA will 

provide feedback on code compliance, energy saving opportunities, and ADA compliance.
