The FBI’s new 256,000-square-foot Central Records Complex will be built in Frederick County.
The General Services Administration purchased the 59-acre site for $4.75 million. The feds plan to build a $109 million facility where more than 440 employees would work, Virginia Business reports.
The idea is to streamline the FBI’s worldwide records management.
“The centralization of FBI records consolidates records from 265 current locations into a single facility,” Joanna Rosato, regional commissioner of GSA’s Public Buildings Service in the mid-Atlantic Region, said in a statement. “The CRC will provide the infrastructure and technology for the FBI to continue to digitize records on demand.”
