(a) In General.— The Postal Service—
|
||
|
||
(1) shall maintain adequate inventory controls and accountability systems for postal property;
|
||
|
||
(2) shall develop current and future workforce projections so as to have the capacity to assess the needs of the Postal Service workforce regarding the use of property;
|
||
|
||
(3) may develop a 5-year management template that—
|
||
|
||
(A) establishes goals and policies that will lead to the reduction of excess property and underutilized property in the inventory of the Postal Service;
|
||
|
||
(B) adopts workplace practices, configurations, and management techniques that can achieve increased levels of productivity and decrease the need for real property assets;
|
||
|
||
(C) assesses leased space to identify space that is not fully used or occupied;
|
||
|
||
(D) develops recommendations on how to address excess capacity at Postal Service facilities without negatively impacting mail delivery; and
|
||
|
||
(E) develops recommendations on ensuring the security of mail processing operations; and
|
||
|
||
(4) if the Postal Service develops a template under paragraph (3) shall, as part of that template and on a regular basis—
|
||
|
||
(A) conduct an inventory of postal property that is real property; and
|
||
|
||
(B) publish a report that covers each property identified under subparagraph (A), similar to the USPS Owned Facilities Report and the USPS Leased Facilities Report, that includes—
|
||
|
||
(i) the date on which the Postal Service first occupied the property;
|
||
|
||
(ii) the size of the property in square footage and acreage;
|
||
|
||
(iii) the geographical location of the property, including an address and description;
|
||
|
||
(iv) the extent to which the property is being utilized;
|
||
|
||
(v) the actual annual operating costs associated with the property;
|
||
|
||
(vi) the total cost of capital expenditures associated with the property;
|
||
|
||
(vii) the number of postal employees, contractor employees, and functions housed at the property;
|
||
|
||
(viii) the extent to which the mission of the Postal Service is dependent on the property; and
|
||
|
||
(ix) the estimated amount of capital expenditures projected to maintain and operate the property over each of the next 5 years after the date of enactment of this chapter.
|
||
|
||
(b) Rule of Construction.— Nothing in subsection (a)(4)(B) shall be construed to require the Postal Service to obtain an appraisal of postal property.
|
