DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

National Park Service


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

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION: Public notice.

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

SUMMARY: Pursuant to 36 CFR 51.23, public notice is here by given that 
the National Park Service proposes to extend the following expiring 
concession contracts until December 31, 2003, or until such time as a 
new contract is awarded, whichever occurs sooner.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: All of the listed concession authorizations 
will expire by their terms on or before December 31, 2002. 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 develop prospectuses leading to the competitive selection of 
concessioners for new long-term concession contracts covering these 
operations.
