6 U.S.C. § 232 — Functions of Administrator of General Services

(a) Operation, maintenance, and protection of Federal buildings and grounds. Nothing in this chapter changes the powers or authority the Administrator of General Services already has over operating, maintaining, and protecting buildings and land owned or occupied by the federal government that the Administrator controls. Except for the law enforcement and related security functions moved to the Department under section 203(3), the Administrator keeps every power granted under Title 40, chapter 1 (except one part, section 121(e)(2)(A)) and chapters 5 through 11, plus any other law needed to operate, maintain, and protect those buildings and grounds. (b) Collection of rents and fees; Federal Buildings Fund. Nothing in this chapter should be read to (A) shift away or otherwise affect the Administrator's authority to collect rents and fees, including fees for protective services; or (B) let the Secretary or any other Department official spend money from the Federal Buildings Fund created by section 592 of title 40. If the Administrator does transfer some of the rents and fees collected to the Secretary, the Secretary may use that money only to protect buildings or grounds owned or occupied by the federal government.
