Description: Focuses on "the public policy and financial implications of having two different sets of security standards for leasehold acquisitions undertaken by the General Services Administration in urban and suburban-based space procurements. To determine the appropriate security countermeasures to employ in a given space lease procurement, GSA and its civilian client agencies follow a standard promulgated by the Interagency Security Committee (ISC) ... To determine the appropriate security countermeasures to employ in a given space lease procurement for any Department of Defense (DOD) space requirement, GSA adheres to a standard promulgated by DOD, known as the Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) DoD Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for Buildings ... The Committee is concerned that application of these two disparate security standards will give rise to two distinctly different classes of protected Federal employees: those Federal employees who work for the DOD, and those employees who do not."--P. vi-viii.
