Concession Contracts and Permits; Extension of Expiring Contracts 
for Up to One Year

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION: Public Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Pursuant to 36 CFR 51.23, public notice is hereby given that 
the National Park Service proposes to extend the following concession 
contracts for a period of up to one year, or until such time as a new 
contract is awarded, whichever occurs sooner.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Park Service has determined 
that the proposed short-term extensions are necessary in order to avoid 
interruption of visitor services and has taken all reasonable and 
appropriate steps to consider alternatives to avoid such interruption. 
These extensions will allow the National Park Service to complete the 
competitive selection of concessioners for new long-term concession 
contracts covering these operations.
