The Public Buildings Service (PBS) policy, effective March 27, 2023, outlines the guidelines for flying the U.S. flag and other flags at buildings under the General Services Administration’s (GSA) jurisdiction. It applies to GSA-operated, delegated, and leased buildings, replacing all prior flag policies. The GSA determines what flags can be flown, viewing it as government speech rather than a public forum. Responsibilities for flag operations vary by building type, with GSA supplying flags and flagpoles for GSA-operated and delegated buildings, while lessors are responsible for leased buildings. Unserviceable flags must be disposed of according to federal law. The policy specifies flag dimensions, flagpole standards, and mandates flying the U.S. flag during daylight hours on all workdays, seven days a week in D.C., and on specific national and state holidays. Flags flown at night must be illuminated. Exceptions to flying the flag include classified installations, short-term leases, or safety hazards. The document details extensive occasions for half-staffing the flag, including the deaths of various officials and prominent citizens, and outlines the notification process for such actions (nationwide, statewide, local, or agency-wide). It also mandates displaying the POW/MIA flag at certain locations and outlines conditions for flying state, city, and agency flags, which must be smaller than the U.S. flag and flown beneath it. Non-agency flags are considered government speech, requiring federal agency requests and GSA approval based on specific criteria.
