PART 102-83_LOCATION OF SPACE--Table of Contents
 
                       Subpart B_Location of Space
 
Sec. 102-83.35  Are executive agencies required to consider whether the 

central business area will provide for adequate competition when acquiring 
leased space?

    In accordance with the Competition in Contracting Act of 1984 
(CICA), as amended (41 U.S.C. 253(a)), executive agencies must consider 
whether restricting the delineated area for obtaining leased space to 
the central business area will provide for adequate competition when 
acquiring leased space. Where an executive agency determines that the 
delineated area must be expanded beyond the CBA in order to provide 
adequate competition, the agency may expand the delineated area in 
consultation with local officials. Executive agencies must continue to 
include the CBA in such expanded areas.
