(Independent Offices Appropriation Act, 1964.) Program and Financing (in thousands of dollars) This appropriation provides for the basic real property operations of General Services Administration, including acquisition, operation, maintenance, protection and utilization of general-purpose buildings and space; and for overall direction of buildings design, construction, repair and modernization. The appropriation request for 1965 of $224,895 thousand is a net increase of $2,451 thousand above a comparable amount of $222,444 thousand for 1964. The 1964 amount includes proposed transfers of $7,175 thousand for costs of expansion space acquired in 1963 and 1964, not provided for in GSA's 1964 budget, $1,984 thousand to finance existing leases of other agencies transferred to GSA in 1964, and $72 thousand for operation of the Roosevelt Library, Hyde Park, N.Y. Also included is an estimate of $2,338 thousand proposed for separate transmittal for full-year costs of 1963 wage board rate increases effected between September 16, 1962, and June 30, 1963. The request for 1965 includes $105 thousand for full-year costs of wage board increases effected July 1 through September 14, 1963, but does not include increases effected subsequent to September 14, 1963. The net increase of $2,451 thousand provides primarily for management and operation of new Federal buildings scheduled for occupancy in 1964 and 1965; increased rental rates and utility costs; full-year costs of rent and operation of additional leased space acquired during 1964 for other agencies with funds transferred from those agencies to cover the part-year costs; increase in space management to carry out objectives of Executive Order 11035; offset by credits for space released due to new construction. Continuing the policy established in 1962, fund requirements are not included in this estimate for the rental and operation of additional leased space to be acquired during 1965 to support expanding programs of Federal agencies of the executive branch, but are included in estimates of the other agencies.
