SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 23, 2018, the President signed HR 
1625, ``Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018,'' which provided 
appropriations through fiscal year 2018. Section 608 of the law directs 
GSA to issue a notice for public comment regarding the inclusion of a 
communications facility installation under section 21 of the Federal 
Assets Sale and Transfer Act of 2016 (40 U.S.C. 1303 note) (FASTA).
    The statute defines communications facility installation as any 
infrastructure, including any transmitting device, tower, or support 
structure, and any equipment, switches, wiring, cabling, power sources, 
shelters, or cabinets associated with the licensed or permitted 
unlicensed wireless or wireline transmission of writings, signs, 
signals, data, images, pictures, and sounds of any kind; and any 
antenna or apparatus that is designed for the purpose of emitting radio 
frequency; is designed to be operated, or is operating, from a fixed 
location pursuant to authorization by the Federal Communications 
Commission or is using duly authorized devices that do not require 
individual licenses; and is added to a tower, building, or other 
structure.
    This Notice is requesting recommendations on (a) the criteria that 
make Federal real property capable of supporting communications 
facility installations; (b) the types of information related to the 
Federal real property that should be included in the Federal Real 
Property Profile (FRPP) database; (c) additional data related to 
installing a communication facility on Federal real property that 
should be considered, such as the types of real property best suited 
for a communication facility installation; and (d) locations that may 
be a higher priority based on market needs or gaps in various 
communication services, such as broadband or cellular services.
    The FRPP is a centralized database containing descriptive 
information on Federal real property owned, leased or otherwise managed 
by executive branch agencies. Executive agencies submit real property 
data to the FRPP pursuant to section 21 of FASTA. A current list and 
associated definitions of FRPP data elements and reporting requirements 
are contained in the Federal Real Property Council Guidance on Real 
Property Inventory Reporting and can be found at: https://www.gsa.gov/cdnstatic/FY%202017%20FRPP%20DATA%20DICTIONARY%20V2_0.pdf.
    Although the agency may not respond to each individual comment, GSA 
may follow-up with respondents to clarify comments. GSA values public 
feedback and will consider all input that it receives.

    Dated: May 2, 2018.

Deputy Associate Administrator, Office of Asset and Transportation 
Management, Office of Government-wide Policy.
