The National Park Service (NPS) is issuing a notice of intent to award a sole source contract to the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) for operational and emergency maintenance on Olympic National Park Route 11 at Lake Crescent. The contract is for a one-year period and includes tasks such as snow removal, repair of pavement cracks and holes, restriping, ditch cleaning, sign repair or replacement, vegetation control, litter pickup, and tasks associated with bridges, guardrails, and related structures. The NPS has identified WSDOT as the sole practicable source for completion of this work due to their expertise, equipment, and location.
