General Annual Repairs increased from $75,000 to $100,000.

25,000

An increase of $25,000 is requested for fiscal year 1995 to cover the projected costs of materials required for miscellaneous annual repairs to the James Madison Memorial Building, Thomas Jefferson Building and John Adams Building. The allotment provides for the general structural and mechanical care and repair of the Library buildings. Since the Restoration and Renovation of the Jefferson and Adams Buildings will be completed, both buildings will be fully occupied. It will be necessary to be able to provide maintenance services to the entire area of both buildings. For the past several years, only half of the two buildings have been maintained since the other half has been undergoing renovation work.

Miscellaneous Improvements increased from $100,000 to $150,000..

For fiscal year 1995, an increase of $50,000 is requested for the "Miscellaneous Improvements" account for the Structural and Mechanical Care of the Library Buildings and Grounds. The ability to perform necessary but unscheduled maintenance and small renovation projects made at the request of the Library has been hampered by not having this account increased. The $50,000 increase will provide funding to allow for unanticipated needs to be taken care of by the Architect. This increase was denied in fiscal years 1992, 1993 and 1994:

Exterior Pointing and Caulking increased from $60,000 to $150,000.

The requested increase of $90,000 is to provide for the ongoing pointing and caulking program for the Library Buildings, as well as to begin a focussed six-year effort on the Jefferson Building. The purpose of the ongoing program is to provide routine annual maintenance to the exterior stonework and other masonry to avoid costly emergency repair work.

Exterior Pointing and Caulking (continued)

Work required on the Jefferson Building includes repair and
repointing of water table ledges ($300,000), masonry joints ($150,000),
brick elevator penthouses ($50,000), granite walks and balustrades at
the Dome ($100,000), granite window stones ($100,000), and the white
glazed brick in the courtyards ($100,000). This program is similar to
the recently completed recaulking of the Madison Building, which took
place over a several year period.

Due to the uncertain nature of weather patterns, the program may
require more than six years to complete. If schedule slippages occur
due to excess inclement weather, the program will be extended.
Training increased from $17,000 to $34,000.

In recent years the Architect's Office has responded to recently
amended civil rights legislation by sponsoring training such as
prevention of sexual harassment, employee rights and responsibilities,
substance abuse, and other subjects. This training is required for all
current and new employees. Additionally, the Office requires
supervisory development training and sponsors basic educational skills
training for reading. Programs to respond to agency training needs
such as trade apprenticeships and additional supervisory development,
are being prepared.

The limited funding available for training is directed almost
entirely toward the required training, leaving few resources available
for other organizational training needs. Cost increases have also
reduced training opportunities. As a result, the Office will have to
reduce the availability of basic educational skills training and
eliminate trade apprenticeship training being developed. Without an

increase in this allotment there will be no monies available for work

performance improvement training, technical skills training, or training necessary for implementing or maintaining new programs or technologies.
