provision or provisions affecting the Crime Victims Fund (as established by

a single point of order that several provisions of a bill, resolution,
amendment, motion, or conference report violate this section. The Presiding
Officer may sustain the point of order as to some or all of the provisions

further amendment, as the case may be, which further amendment shall consist of
only that portion of the conference report or House amendment, as the case may
be, not so stricken. Any such motion shall be debatable. In any case in which

504.
Sense of
Senate on underutilized facilities of the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration and their potential use
(a)
Findings
The
Senate finds the following:
(1) The National
Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is the ninth largest real property
holder of the Federal Government, with more than 124,000 acres and more than
4,900 buildings and other structures with a replacement value of more than
$30,000,000,000.
(2) The annual
operation and maintenance costs of the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration have increased steadily, and, as of 2012, the Administration has
more than $2,300,000,000 in annual deferred maintenance costs.
(3) According to
Office of Inspector General (OIG) of the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration, the Administration continues to retain real property that is
underutilized, does not have identified future mission uses, or is duplicative
of other assets in its real property inventory.
(4) The Office of
Inspector General, the Government Accountability Office (GAO), and Congress
have identified the aging and duplicative infrastructure of the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration as a high priority and longstanding
management challenge.
(5) In the NASA
Authorization Act of 2010, Congress directed the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration to examine its real property assets and downsize to fit current
and future missions and expected funding levels, paying particular attention to
identifying and removing unneeded or duplicative infrastructure.
(6) The Office of
Inspector General found at least 33 facilities, including wind tunnels, test
stands, airfields, and launch infrastructure, that were underutilized or for
which National Aeronautics and Space Administration managers could not identify
a future mission use and that the need for these facilities have declined in
recent years as a result of changes in the mission focus of the Administration,
the condition and obsolescence of some facilities, and the advent of
alternative testing methods.
(7) The Office of
Inspector General found that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration
has taken steps to minimize the costs of continuing to maintain some of these
facilities by placing them in an inactive state or leasing them to other
parties.
(8) The National
Aeronautics and Space Administration has a series of initiatives underway that,
in the judgment of the Office of Inspector General, are positive steps
towards rightsizing its real property footprint, and the
Office of Inspector General has concluded that it is imperative that
NASA move forward aggressively with its infrastructure reduction
efforts.
(9) Existing and
emerging United States commercial launch and exploration capabilities are
providing cargo transportation to the International Space Station and offer the
potential for providing crew support, access to the International Space
Station, and missions to low Earth orbit while the National Aeronautics and
Space Administration focuses its efforts on heavy-lift capabilities and deep
space missions.
(10) National
Aeronautics and Space Administration facilities and property that are
underutilized, duplicative, or no longer needed for Administration requirements
could be utilized by commercial users and State and local entities, resulting
in savings for the Administration and a reduction in the burden of the Federal
Government to fund space operations.
(b)
Sense of
Senate
It is the sense of the Senate that the levels in this
concurrent resolution assume—
(1) the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration should move forward with plans to reduce
its infrastructure and, to the greatest extent practicable, make property
available for lease to a government or private tenant or report the property to
the General Services Administration (GSA) for sale or transfer to another
entity;
(2) the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration should pursue opportunities for
streamlined sale or lease of property and facilities, including for exclusive
use, to a private entity, or expedited conveyance or transfer to a State or
political subdivision, municipality, instrumentality of a State, or Department
of Transportation-licensed launch site operators for the promotion of
commercial or scientific space activity and for developing and operating space
launch facilities; and
(3) leasing or
transferring underutilized facilities and properties to commercial space
entities or State or local governments will reduce operation and maintenance
costs for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, save money for the
Federal Government, and promote commercial space and the exploration goals of
the Administration and the United States.
