Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 124 / Thursday, July 1, 2021 / Rules and Regulations procurement mid-career professional.
The equivalent labor category used to capture cost estimates therefore is a GS
12 Step 5.
A. To estimate the aggregate burden to Government lessors of complying with the rule, the number of lessors that will be impacted was calculated using numbers pulled from GSAs records and databases.17 As of June 2021, GSA has approximately 7,860 leases totaling approximately 183,000,000 in Rentable Square Footage RSF and approximately $5,600,000,000 in annual rent $2,800,000,000 of that total represents small entities. Of the 7,860, approximately 1,263 18 or 16 percent of the leases are for high-security lease space lease space in a facility with a security level of III, IV, or V totaling approximately 87,000,000 in RSF and approximately $3,000,000,000 in annual rent. Approximately 68 percent 19 of the leasing entities are small entities. Highsecurity leases with these small entities represents $1,370,000,000 in annual rent covering approximately 37,000,000
RSF.
B. GSA also delegates leasing authority to several agencies, which are required to follow GSAs policies. GSA

estimates there are 1,300 20 buildings represented by these agencies with Delegated Leasing Authority 21 from GSA. GSA does not have data available that identifies which of these are for high-security lease space. GSA assumes that these delegated agencies have a similar profile to GSAs for highsecurity leased space to total portfolio space, i.e., 16 percent. This would bring the total number of high-security lease space for delegated agencies to 208
1,300 16 percent. GSA also assumes the same profile for small entities of 68
percent.
C. Based on historical data maintained by GSAs Office of Leasing, GSA estimates that 6 percent of its highsecurity leased space will be solicited for a new contract each year 6 percent of 1,263 = 76 leases. These solicitations result from a mix of expiring highsecurity leases or new requirements for high-security facilities. GSA assumes these trends will continue for the time horizon outlined by this regulatory impact. Based on historic bid rates and high current vacancy levels, GSA
further estimates that 3 lessors will make offers for these high-security lease procurement for a total of 228 offers 76

high-security leases awarded 3 lessors competing for each solicitation. 76 3
= 228 GSA assumes the same profile for delegated facilities.
D. Since 2014, GSA has averaged approximately 31 renewal options per year for high-security leases equal to approximately 17 percent of all renewals options during the same period and averaged approximately 106
extensions for existing high-security leases also equal to approximately 17
percent of all extensions during the same period. GSA assumes the same trend will continue in subsequent years.
GSA assumes the same profile for delegated facilities.
E. GSA processed 380 novations from May 1, 2020 to April 30, 2021 22 23
therefore approximately 5 percent of leases resulted in a novation 380/
7,860. GSA does not have data on how many of those were related to FSL III, IV, or V. GSA will assume 16 percent of those novations were for FSL III, IV, or V leases. Therefore, it is assumed 61
novations were processed for highsecurity leases in the last year.
