MEMORANDUM FOR: James H. McDonald
Director of Logistics
STAT FROM
Assistant Legislative Counsel
SUBJECT : Parking
1. I am addressing this memorandum to your attention in
an effort to keep you fully and currently informed of legisla-
tive developments regarding the above-captioned subject.
2. I recently made contact with the staffer in Senator
Percy's office who is handling the Senator's parking initiative,
S. 930 (reference: OLC 79-1431/1, 17 August 1971). In response
to my question concerning the prospects and timetable for action
on the bill, the staffer stated the following:
--S. 930 will be marked-up in full Committee
toward the end of September;
--While no official nose count has yet been
taken of Committee members, the staffer expressed
confidence in seeing the bill reported by the full
Committee immediately after mark-up; and,
--What might happen on the Senate floor is
anybody's guess, according to the staffer.
3. The timetable discussed above is critical to our
concerns since, according to the latest OMB Circular No. A-118,
dated 13 August 1979, GSA will issue final regulations by
1. October with final agency regulations due to be issued by
1 November 1979. Even if the bill is reported at the end of
September by the full Committee, it will. still have to be given
Senate floor consideration and subsequently referred to the
House for subcommittee/committee/floor and possible conference
action. It is inconceivable that S. 930 would be steered through
the legislative process--both Senate and House side--before
1 November or before the 96th Congress' 1st Session adjournment,

whichever comes first. Ultimate legislative success of S. 930
is, of course, always up in the air, as it is with any piece
of legislation. S. 930 would be placed in an even more
precarious position should Executive Branch final regulations
be promulgated since to a certain extent the latter moot the
former.
4. As I read the 13 August OMB Circular, Agency equities,
in particular cover and security considerations, have not been
taken into account. Such arguments were persuasive enough to
generate Mr. Percy's "Amendment in the Nature of a Substitute"
to S. 930, and in the opinion of the undersigned, should be
once again aired with appropriate OMB officials in accordance
with OMB's invitation for further Executive Branch comment.
STAT I've spoken with of your staff with regard to the
above and indicated that it might be appropriate at this stage
to regroup in an effort to determine what our next step should
be.
