Protects publicly commissioned art by requiring preservation plans and expert review before disposal.
The PRESERVE Act mandates the General Services Administration (GSA) to safeguard publicly commissioned art. It requires the GSA to establish a Preservation Committee for surplus properties containing such art. The Committee must submit a preservation plan to the GSA and Congress. The GSA Administrator cannot dispose of such properties without the Committee's approval and expert review. The Act also allows for long-term loans of covered art to museums or nonprofits.
