Description

The Bureau of Land Management proposes to noncompetitively issue a purchase order with W-W Manufacturing Co., Inc., P. O. Box 728, Dodge City, Kansas 67801 for the purchase of Panels, Posts and Gates. The purpose of purchasing the panels, posts and gates is to replace wooden fencing installed approximately 26 years ago at the Burns Wild Horse Corral, Burns, Oregon. The wooden fence material requires constant maintenance. Approximately 8 years ago the Burns District began replacing the wooden fence material with heavy duty W-W panels, interlocking posts and 4 inch steel casing for posts. The fence material to be purchased will match the material installed 8 years ago which has proven to withstand the extreme force of wild horses. No maintenance has been required on this fence material. The panels, posts and gates are to be supplied in the following quantities and must include the following salient characteristics: Panels: 345 each of 712 , 700 series Classic panels, 2 inch OD x 14 gauge high yield steel tubing; Posts: 325 each of 8 foot Classic 2-way posts, 700 series, 2 3/8 inch OD x .154 wall steel tubing; 20 each of 8 foot Classic 3-way posts, 700 series, 2 3/8 inch OD x .154 wall steel tubing. Gates: 614 Classic corral gate, 2 inch OD x 14 gauge high yield steel tubing, with double plunger horseback latch and telescoping patch hinges to fit 4 inch OD pipe posts. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Responses due no later than August 20, 2001 by 4:15 p.m., local time.
