Notice of Intent To Extend and Continue Concession Contracts and Award Temporary Concession Contracts
AGENCY:
National Park Service, Interior.
ACTION:
Public notice.
SUMMARY:
The National Park Service gives public notice that, pursuant to the terms of the concession contracts identified in the tables below, as applicable, and in accordance with NPS regulations, it intends to: (1) Extend each concession contract listed in Table 1 until the date shown in the "Extension Date" column or until the effective date of a new contract, whichever comes first; (2) continue each concession contract listed in Table 2 for a period not to exceed one year beginning on January 1, 2022; and (3) award the temporary concession contracts listed in Table 3.
DATES:
The National Park Service intends that the concession contract extensions, continuations, temporary concession contracts, and sole source concession contracts will be effective on the dates shown in the "Effective Date" columns, as applicable.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Kurt Rausch, Program Chief, Commercial Services Program, National Park Service, 1849 C Street NW, Mail Stop 2410, Washington, DC 20240; Telephone: 202-513-7156.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The concession contracts listed in Table 1 below will expire by their terms on or before October 31, 2022. Under 36 CFR 51.23, the National Park Service proposes to extend each contract until the date shown in the "Extension Date" column or until the effective date of a new contract, whichever comes first. The National Park Service has determined that the proposed extensions are necessary to avoid an interruption of visitor services and has taken all reasonable and appropriate steps to consider alternatives to avoid such an interruption. The extension of the existing contracts does not confer or affect any rights with respect to the award of new contracts.
The concession contracts listed in Table 2 below have been extended for the maximum time allowable under 36 CFR 51.23. Under the provisions of the existing contracts and pending the issuance of prospectuses and the completion of the public solicitation process to award new concession contracts, the National Park Service intends to continue the existing contracts for a period not to exceed one year beginning on January 1, 2022. Except for their expiration dates, the terms and conditions of the existing contracts will remain unchanged. The continuation of the existing contracts does not confer or affect any rights with respect to the award of new concession contracts.
The National Park Service proposes awarding temporary concession contracts, in accordance with 36 CFR 51.24(a), to provide the visitor services currently provided under the contracts listed in Table 3 below. Each temporary contract will have a term not to exceed three years, and each will be awarded to a qualified person. The National Park Service anticipates that the temporary contracts will be effective on the dates shown in the "Effective Date" column. This notice is not a request for proposals.
The publication of this notice reflects the intent of the National Park Service but does not bind the National Park Service to extend, continue, or award any of the contracts listed below.
