Sec. 102-73.60  Are there any limitations on leasing certain space?

    Yes, the limitations on leasing certain space are as follows:
    (a) In general, Federal agencies may not lease any space to 
accommodate computer and telecommunications operations; secure or 
sensitive activities related to the national defense or security; or a 
permanent courtroom, judicial chamber, or administrative office for any 
United States court, if the average annual net rental cost of leasing 
such space would exceed the prospectus threshold (40 U.S.C. 606(e)).
    (b) Federal agencies may lease such space only if the Administrator 
of General Services first determines that leasing such space is 
necessary to meet requirements which cannot be met in public buildings 
and submits such reasons to the Committee on Environment and Public 
Works of the Senate and the Committee on Public Works and Transportation 
of the House of Representatives in accordance with 40 U.S.C. 606(e).
