Imagery shall be provided to USGS in three shipments from October 2008 through January 2009. 13) Use and Distribution Rights: All deliverable data and documentation shall be free from restrictions regarding use and distribution. Based on information available at this time, and in accordance with 41 U.S.C.253(c)(1), implemented by FAR 6.302-1(b)(1)(i), the Government considers the imagery specified as a sole source from Mid-America Regional Council (MARC), 600 Broadway, Suite 300, Kansas City, MO 64105, and proposes to negotiate a contract with that firm. However, should additional sources be identified, they will be considered. Concerns that think they can furnish the required imagery, or its functional equivalent (based upon the criteria specified herein), and provide considerable cost sharing are invited to submit in writing an affirmative response to this announcement. An affirmative response would include literature, brochures and such other materials that correspond to the requirements stated herein. This information will be evaluated and used to determine if competitive opportunities exist. Since no solicitation document exists, requests for this document without accompanying information will be considered non-responsive to this request and will not be considered further. This notice may represent the Government's only official notice of this procurement.
