Special use facilities for special purpose needs such as built-in and fixed equipment for laboratory, clinical, and other special use purposes must be incorporated into the project prior to submission of the prospectus.

(4) Identification of locations where space should be retained in preference to inclusion in the proposed project.

(b) Space requirements shall be based on currently authorized personnel and program activities including information on major changes anticipated within the next 5 years.

(d) Agencies will not be permitted to make changes in approved space layout drawings submitted to GSA for new buildings, following established terminal dates, except where subsequent unusual and compelling agency developments make changes necessary. Requests for such changes will be submitted, over the signature of the head of the department or agency, to the Administrator of General Services for consideration.
