Kunzig Acxninistrator of General Services 18'6h and F Streets, N. VT. Washington, D. C. 20405' Dear Mr. r~ur,zig: This is to request an exemption from the prop ibition Gf the General Services Administration regulation X41 C. F.R. 101- 19. 306) to permit the use of alcoholic beverages on the Federal property occupied by this Agency at McLean, Virginia. As you know, the Agency's headquarters are in McLean "if and the Director, his Senior staff, and the mayor portion GY our employees are located here. y; rom time to time it is necessary for the Director and other senior officials to meet with foreig n officials and individuals as well as influential American citizens from private life. Normally, there are security considerations pertaining to such official contacts, and in many instances our guests request that these meetings not be publicized or readily observable. -.Ve cannot, therefore, provide appropriate social , ? __ ameni;;ies in public places. in there are comxr: einora- five or similar events which should be appropriately recognized with participation of Agency personnel as well as citizens from private life. Because of the security relating to the identity o; certain of these individuals or their relation to the Agency or t:.e United States Government, again we are unable to use public facilities. At meetings of this sort, it is customary to serve t,.at alcoholic beverages in moderation. It is for these reasons we believe we need the exemption referred to above. We would maintain strict controls on such activities, wLLh -articular Government property and for the rep utal,ion of the Government and its employees. Approved.
