Description

Notification of Intent to Sole Source Announcement of intent to sole source for the use of retired Merritt Island Launch Annex (MILA) at National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Kennedy Space Center (KSC). NASA announces its intent to execute an Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) for the MILA Facility, located along the canal in the southern portion of NASA Stennis Space Center�s fee area, adjacent to Road H. NASA has received strong interest from a long-standing commercial partner and tenant to occupy the currently under-utilized area, MILA Facility, to support NASA�s mission by advancing the commercial space economy. The proposed EUL is a reasonable expansion to a current tenant to provide additional acreage to be used for vehicle cryogenic testing requirements. Responses received by March 8, 2026, will be used to assess additional market interest and determine whether, to whom, and under what terms the facility may be out-granted to ensure best value to the Government. NASA will proceed in a manner that supports agency missions, U.S. national space policy, and maximizes public benefit. If no other responses are received, and pending successful due diligence and negotiations, NASA may enter into a real estate instrument and related cooperation agreements with the proposed tenant for the use of the MILA Facility.
