V -- CONCESSION CONTRACT FOR OPERATION OF A 12-ROOM MOTOR LODGE Sol CC-CACO002-95. Due 052295. Contact Lynne Koser, (617) 223-5209. Public notice is hereby given that the National Park Service proposes to award a concession contract authorizing continued operation of the Nauset Knoll Motor Lodge facilities and services for the public at Cape Cod National Seashore, Massachusetts for a period of five (5) years from January 1, 1995 through December 31, 1999. Interested parties should contact the Regional Director, North Atlantic Region, Attention: Concession Management Division, 15 State Street, Boston, MA 02109-3572, Telephone (617) 223-5209, to obtain a copy of the prospectus describing the requirements of the proposed contract. Supplementary Information: This contract renewal has been determined to be categorically excluded from the procedural provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act and no environmental document will be prepared. The existing concessioner has performed its obligations to the satisfaction of the Secretary under an existing contract which expired by limitation of time on December 31, 1993, and therefore pursuant to the provisions of Section 5 of the Act of October 9, 1965 (79 Stat 969; 16 USC Sec 20), is entitled to be given preference in the renewal of the contract and in the negotiation of a new contract, providing that the existing concessioner submits a responsive offer (a timely offer which meets the terms and conditions of the Prospectus). This means that the contract will be awarded to the party submitting the best offer, provided that if the best offer was not submitted by the existing concessioner, then the existing concessioner will be afforded the opportunity to match the best offer. If the existing concessioner agrees to match the best offer, then the contract will be awarded to the existing concessioner. If the existing concessioner does not submit a responsive offer, the right of preference in renewal shall be considered to have been waived, and the contract will then be awarded to the party that has submitted the best responsive offer. The secretary will consider and evaluate all proposals received as a result of this notice. Any proposal, including that of the existing concessioner, must be received by the Regional Director not later than May 22, 1995 to be considered and evaluated. (090)
