National Park Service

Concession Contracts and Permits; Extension of Expiring Contracts for Up to One Year

AGENCY:

National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION:

Public Notice.

SUMMARY:

Pursuant to 36 CFR 51.23, public notice is hereby given that the National Park Service proposes to extend the following expiring concession contracts for a period of up to one year, or until such time as a new contract is awarded, whichever occurs sooner.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The listed concession authorizations will expire by their terms on or before December 31, 2001. The National Park Service has determined that the proposed short-term extensions are necessary in order to avoid interruption of visitor services and has taken all reasonable and appropriate steps to consider alternatives to avoid such interruption. These extensions will allow the National Park Service to complete and issue prospectuses leading to the competitive selection of concessioners for new long-term concession contracts covering these operations.
