Sec. 102-76.20  What issues must Federal agencies consider in providing site planning and landscape design services?

    In providing site planning and design services, Federal agencies 
must:
    (a) Make the site planning and landscape design a direct extension 
of the building design;
    (b) Make a positive contribution to the surrounding landscape;
    (c) Consider requirements (other than procedural requirements) of 
local zoning laws and laws relating to setbacks, height, historic 
preservation and aesthetic qualities of a building;
    (d) Identify areas for future building expansion in the 
architectural and site design concept for all buildings where an 
expansion need is identified to exist;
    (e) Create a landscape design that is a pleasant, dynamic experience 
for occupants and visitors to Federal facilities and, where appropriate, 
encourage public access to and stimulate pedestrian traffic around the 
facilities. Coordinate the landscape design with the architectural 
characteristics of the building; and
    (f) Comply with the requirements of the National Environmental 
Policy Act of 1969, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq., and the National 
Historic Preservation Act, as amended, 16 U.S.C. 470 et seq., for each 
project.
    (g) Consider the vulnerability of the facility as well as the 
security needs of the occupying agencies.
