The Director, pursuant to 36 CFR 51 has determined that this is not a qualified contract with regard to preference for a Preferred Offeror, and therefore, no Preferred Offeror for this contract exists.

The prospectus describes the business opportunity and includes the terms and conditions under which the NPS will award the concession contract. The prospectus will be available on the NPS website at http://www.concessions.nps.gov/Prospectus.cfm, or you can receive a hard copy for $50.00. To request a copy of the prospectus, send a check for $50.00 payable to the National Park Service to Mark Morgan at the address listed below.
