Secure Adjacent Federal Property Act of 2023
S 1868, the Secure Adjacent Federal Property Act of 2023, requires the General Services Administrator to lead a governmentwide study examining how federal agencies can assess security risks before leasing space adjacent to high-security federal buildings. The study will evaluate threat assessments through site visits and interviews, and may collect limited information about owners or beneficial owners of entities seeking to lease such adjacent space. It does not change current leasing practices but aims to develop a standardized security process for federal agencies. The study must be completed within two years, with a report to Congress detailing findings and how privacy rights will be protected during information collection. This bill affects federal agencies leasing space near high-security facilities but does not impose new requirements on private entities.
