Efficiency of Layout (SLAT) (OCT 2020)

In order to be acceptable for award, the offered Space must provide for an efficient layout as determined by the LCO. To demonstrate potential for efficient layout, GSA may request the Offeror to provide a test fit layout at the Offeror’s expense.

ACTION REQUIRED: PARAGRAPH DEFAULTS TO A “BASE” STANDARD OF “1-PERCENT-ANNUAL-CHANCE” FLOODPLAIN DESIGNATION (FORMERLY REFERRED TO AS “100-YEAR” FLOODPLAIN). IF AGENCY DESIGNATES THIS AS A CRITICAL ACTION (DEFINED AS ANY ACTIVITY OR ACTION FOR WHICH EVEN A SLIGHT CHANCE OF FLOODING WOULD BE TOO GREAT), USE “0.2-PERCENT-ANNUAL-CHANCE” [TWO-TENTHS OF A PERCENT] FLOODPLAIN (FORMERLY REFERRED TO AS “500-YEAR” FLOODPLAIN) INSTEAD. EXAMPLES OF CRITICAL ACTIONS INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: STORAGE OF IRREPLACEABLE RECORDS; STORAGE OF VOLATILE, TOXIC, OR WATER-REACTIVE MATERIALS; CONSTRUCTION OR OPERATION OF HOSPITALS AND SCHOOLS; CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION OF UTILITIES AND EMERGENCY SERVICES THAT WOULD BE INOPERATIVE IF FLOODED; STORAGE OF NATIONAL STRATEGIC AND CRITICAL MATERIALS; ACQUISITION OF HEALTH FACILITIES FOR CLIENT AGENCIES; CHILD CARE FACILITIES; AND PUBLIC BENEFIT CONVEYANCES FOR SCHOOLS, PRISONS, AND SOME OTHER INSTITUTIONAL USES.

FLOOD PLAINS (OCT 2022)

A Lease will not be awarded for any offered Property located within a 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain (formerly referred to as 100-year floodplain) unless the Government has determined that there is no practicable alternative. An Offeror may offer less than its entire site in order to exclude a portion of the site that falls within a floodplain, so long as the portion offered meets all the requirements of this RLP and does not impact the Government’s full use and enjoyment of the Premises. If an Offeror intends that the offered Property that will become the Premises for purposes of this Lease will be something other than the entire site as recorded in tax or other property records the Offeror shall clearly demarcate the offered Property on its site plan/map submissions and shall propose an adjustment to property taxes on an appropriate pro rata basis. For such an offer, the Government may determine that the offered Property does not adequately avoid development in a 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain.

In addition, a Lease will not be awarded for any offered Property adjacent to a 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain, where such an adjacency would, as determined by the Government, restrict ingress or egress to the Premises in the event of a flood, unless there is no practicable alternative.

HISTORIC PREFERENCE (SMALL) (SEP 2015)

The Government will give preference to offers of Space in Historic Properties and/or Historic Districts in accordance with GSAR 552.270-2 HISTORIC PREFERENCE (SEP 2004).

ENERGY INDEPENDENCE AND SECURITY ACT (OCT 2023)

A. The Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) establishes requirements for Government leases relating to energy efficiency standards and potential cost-effective energy efficiency and conservation improvements.

B. Subject to the exceptions below, unless one of the statutory exceptions listed in sub-paragraph C below applies, GSA may award a lease for a Building only if the Building has earned the ENERGY STAR® label conferred by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) within the most recent year prior to the due date for final proposal revisions. The term “most recent year” means that the date of award of the ENERGY STAR® label by EPA must not be more than 1 year prior to the due date of final proposal revisions. For example, an ENERGY STAR® label awarded by EPA on October 1, 2023, is valid for all lease procurements where final proposal revisions are due on or before September 30, 2024. Notwithstanding the above, buildings that meet any of the following are considered as equivalent to having an Energy Star label in the most recent year, provided they achieve an ENERGY STAR® label within 18 months after occupancy by the Government:

1. All new Buildings being specifically constructed for the Government, provided they achieve an ENERGY STAR® label within 18 months after occupancy by the Government, and received the “Designed to Earn the Energy Star®” certification prior to construction;

2. All existing Buildings that have had an Energy Star® label but are unable to obtain a label in the most recent year (i.e., within 12 months prior to the due date for final proposal revisions) because of insufficient occupancy;

3. Newly built Buildings that have used Energy® Star’s Target Finder tool and either achieved a “Designed to Earn the Energy Star®” certification or received an unofficial score (in strict adherence to Target Finder’s usage instructions, including the use of required energy modeling) of 75 or higher prior to the due date for final proposal revisions and who are unable to obtain a label in the most recent year because of insufficient occupancy; or

4. An existing Building that is unable to obtain a label because of insufficient occupancy but that can produce an indication, through the use of energy modeling or past utility and occupancy data input into Energy Star’s® Portfolio Manager tool or Target Finder, that it can receive an unofficial score of 75 or higher using all other requirements of Target Finder or Portfolio Manager, except for actual data from the most recent year.

ENERGY STAR® tools and resources can be found at https://www.energystar.gov/BUILDINGS/TOOLS-AND-RESOURCES.

C. Subject to subparagraph D below, EISA allows a Federal agency to lease Space in a Building that does not have an ENERGY STAR® Label if:

1. No Space is offered in a Building with an ENERGY STAR® Label that meets RLP requirements, including locational needs;

2. The agency will remain in a Building it currently occupies;

3. The Lease will be in a Building of historical, architectural, or cultural significance listed or eligible to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places; or

4. The Lease is for 10,000 RSF or less.

D. If one or more of the statutory exceptions applies, and the offered Space is not in a Building that has earned the ENERGY STAR® Label within one year prior to the due date for final proposal revisions, Offerors are required to include in their lease proposal an agreement to renovate the Building for all energy efficiency and conservation improvements that it has determined would be cost effective over the Firm Term of the Lease, if any, prior to acceptance of the Space (or not later than one year after the Lease Award Date of a succeeding or superseding lease). Such improvements may consist of, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) upgrades, including boilers, chillers, and Building Automation System (BAS)/Monitoring/Control System (EMCS).

2. Lighting Improvements.

3. Building Envelope Modifications.

Note. Additional information can be found on https://www.gsa.gov/real-estate/real-estate-services/leasing/sustainability-policies under “Sustainability Policies.”

E. The term "cost effective" means an improvement that will result in substantial operational cost savings to the landlord by reducing electricity or fossil fuel consumption, water, or other utility costs. The term "operational cost savings" means a reduction in operational costs to the landlord through the application of Building improvements that achieve cost savings over the Firm Term of the Lease sufficient to pay the incremental additional costs of making the Building improvements.

F. Instructions for obtaining an ENERGY STAR® Label are provided at http://www.energystar.gov/buildings/facility-owners-and-managers/existing-buildings/ (use “Portfolio Manager” to apply). ENERGY STAR® tools and resources can be found at https://www.energystar.gov/BUILDINGS/TOOLS-AND-RESOURCES. The ENERGY STAR® Building Upgrade Manual https://www.energystar.gov/buildings/tools-and-resources/) and Building Upgrade Value Calculator (http://www.energystar.gov/buildings/tools-and-resources/) are tools which can be useful in considering energy efficiency and conservation improvements to Buildings.

G. If one or more of the statutory exceptions applies, and the offered Space is not in a Building that has earned the ENERGY STAR® Label within one year prior to the due date for final proposal revisions, the successful Offeror will be excused from performing any agreed-to energy efficiency and conservation renovations, and benchmarking with public disclosure (as provided in (I) below, if it obtains the ENERGY STAR® Label prior to the Government’s acceptance of the Space (or not later than one year after the Lease Award Date for succeeding and superseding leases).

H. If no improvements are proposed, the Offeror must demonstrate to the Government using the ENERGY STAR® Online Tools why no energy efficiency and conservation improvements are cost effective. If such explanation is unreasonable, the offer may be rejected.

I. As described in Section 3 of the Lease, successful Offerors meeting one of the statutory exceptions above must agree to benchmark and publicly disclose the Building’s current ENERGY STAR® score, using EPA’s Portfolio Manager online software application. See the Lease for additional details.

J. All new Buildings being specifically constructed for the Government must achieve the ENERGY STAR® Label within 18 months after occupancy by the Government.
