CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
27 December 1972
Honorable George H. Mahon, Chairman
Committee on Appropriations
House of Representatives
Washington, D. C. 20515
Dear Mr. Chairman:
6 (=c 7 P -/
In the absence of the Director, he has asked me to inform you that
the General Services Administration will be requesting bids within the
next month for the construction of a motor pool garage and repair facility
at the Agency headquarters in Langley, Virginia.
This facility will replace a building located in South Arlington some
12 miles from Langley, the lease of which will expire in FY 1975 without
renewal option. This forced relocation, and the general inefficiency and
inconvenience experienced with various leased facilities remote from the
Langley headquarters, has led to a decision to consolidate our motor pool
functions into one facility at the headquarters site. The new building will
be 189 feet long, 71 feet wide, and 26 feet high.
It is estimated that $1, 050, 000 will be required to complete this
project and funds in this amount have been transferred to GSA for this
purpose. These funds were reprogrammed from budgeted activities which
did not require implementation as originally planned. Additional appropria-
tion requests are not contemplated. The estimated savings from the proposed
consolidation will amount to $118, 000 per year beginning in FY 1975, thus
amortizing the cost of construction over the following 10 years.
We will be happy to provide any additional information that you may
Respectfully,
Vernon A. Walters
Lieutenant General, USA
Acting Director
