As indicated in the discussions on December 5, 1984, a direct result of the Delegation of Authority was a reduction of National Capital Region's Budget to offset the SLUC rebate provided to CIA. Our budget for FY-1985 does not contain funding to provide protection for CIA facilities. In keeping with the provisions of the Delegation, GSA discontinued all recruitment for protection vacancies at CIA facilities. Manpower shortages have been offset by reliance on overtime to meet the requirements. This was believed to be a temporary measure since it was our understanding that these shortages would be backfilled by personnel from locations covered by the Delegation. To further add to the existing costs, GSA is currently funding 15.2 direct protection positions assigned to the Headquarters Complex. It is GSA's position that reinstituting recruitment to increase personnel is not a viable alternative. Particularly due to the inordinate time lag necessary to obtain required security clearances, plus the fact that we are currently staffed to assume the workload once the FPO's have been released from the Langley assignments. Increasing our ceiling would create additional problems. In order to resolve this situation, it is necessary that CIA reimburse NCR for the total cost of the protection GSA is providing. It is anticipated that these costs will be reduced as CIA is capable of replacing Federal Protective Officers with CIA personnel. This will enable the Region to transfer FPO's to other CIA locations.

D. C. 20505 24 DEC 1984 Mr. James G. Whitlock Assistant Regional Administrator Public Buildings and Real Property General Services Administration Washington, D. C. 20405 Dear.Mr. Whitlock: At the 5 December 1984 meeting called to consider the Agency's slotting problems for its Security Protective Service, you voiced concern over the matter of current funding for FPS services to this Agency. Subsequently it has been confirmed that the Agency's first quarter/FY 1985 payments to GSA did not include funds for 6,570 hours of service previously paid under SLUC arrangements. Accordingly, a Reimbursable Work Authorization in the amount of $98,484.30 is enclosed to cover these services. This Office is committed to effecting a smooth transition in regards to the delegation of authority. Please do not hesitate to advise of any other concerns that may develop.
