Opportunity Summary:

The "North Cascades National Park Additional Project Work 2012/13" notice is a National Park Service (NPS) public announcement that it planned to fund a specific set of on-the-ground conservation and repair activities at North Cascades National Park without running a full, open competition. It is not a request for applications and was posted mainly to meet public notice requirements while the agency proceeded with a noncompetitive action.

The Department of the Interior, through NPS at North Cascades National Park, intended to make a single-source award to the State of Washington, Department of Ecology, Washington Conservation Corps (WCC), based in Olympia, Washington. The notice cites Department of the Interior policy (Departmental Manual 505 DM 2) and justifies the noncompetitive approach on the basis of "unique qualifications." In practical terms, NPS is saying WCC is uniquely positioned to do this work because of factors like its location, ability to support the project logistically, technical expertise, and other capabilities that make it a strong fit for the specific tasks at the park.

Rather than creating a brand-new agreement, NPS planned to issue a modification to an existing task agreement, adding additional work under that ongoing cooperative relationship. The project scope described in the announcement focuses on two core activities at Stehekin Landing in Stehekin, Washington: weed control (typically invasive plant management and related natural resource protection work) and bulkhead repairs (infrastructure work associated with shoreline protection and stability around the landing area).

The estimated value of the task agreement modification for this additional work was $29,160, and the opportunity anticipated a single award. The listing classifies the instrument as a cooperative agreement and places it under a natural resources activity category, with the CFDA number 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations." No cost sharing or matching was required. Key dates show the notice was posted July 20, 2012, with a closing date of July 30, 2012, and it was archived on August 29, 2012.

For administrative questions or issues accessing the announcement, the contact listed was Barry Fetzer, Contract Specialist/Contracting Officer at North Cascades National Park, reachable by phone at 360-854-7219.
