- Description
- Availability of a prospectus for solicitation of offers to operate commercial visitor services between St. Marys, Georgia and Cumberland Island National Seashore. The concession will operate and maintain a passenger ferry service between St. Marys, Georgia and Cumberland Island National Seashore and provide limited refreshments and sundry sales onboard the vessel. Gross revenues over the past three years have averaged approximately $462,000 annually. The term of this contract is expected to be ten years, and will require a minimum franchise fee to be paid to the National Park Service of 10% of gross revenue per year. The Director, pursuant to 36 CFR 51, has determined that this is a qualified contract, within the meaning regarding determination of a preferred offeror, because gross receipts are expected not to be greater than $500,000 in the first year of the contract. Therefore, there is a preferred offeror for this contract and all offers will be evaluated according to the terms set forth in the Prospectus. Offers must be received by close of business at 4:00 p.m. on April 12, 2004. The Prospectus will explain the business opportunity, the terms and conditions under which the NPS will award the concession contract, the proposal instructions, and the proposal package (including the selection factors). There will be an administrative charge to recoup printing cost of $30.00 plus a $5.00 mailing fee for each prospectus. Please make checks for $35.00 payable to the National Park Service. Include a physical address (not post office box) and telephone number. A site visit will be scheduled in the near future as an opportunity for interested parties to visit the business and view the existing operation first hand. We will notify those who request a prospectus when the date is scheduled. Please contact Julie Meeks at (912) 882-4336 ext. 225 to make an appointment to attend this site visit. All requests for prospectuses should be made in writing to Henry Benedetti, Chief, Commercial Services, National Park Service, AFC, 1924 Building, 100 Alabama Street, S.W., Atlanta, GA 30303. No telephone requests for the prospectus will be honored. Please note that no further information than that provided above is available through any other internet resources or links. Concession contracts are not contracts within the meaning of 41 USC 601 et seq. (The Contract Dispute Act) and are not service or procurement contracts within the meaning of statutes, regulations or policies that apply only to federal service contracts or other types of federal procurement actions
