***THE NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION-S (NOAA) ACQUISITION & GRANTS OFFICE, EASTERN ACQUISITION DIVISION-NORFOLK, ON BEHALF OF NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE (NOS), HAWAIIAN ISLANDS HUMPBACK WHALE NATIONAL MARINE SANCTUARY (HIHWNMS), INTENDS TO NEGOTIATE AND AWARD A PURCHASE ORDER, ON A SOLE SOURCE BASIS, UNDER AUTHORITY OF RFO FAR 6.103-1, WITH THE NATURE CONSERVANCY (TNC) FOR THE PURCHASE OF AN ENTANGLEMENT RESPONSE TOOLKIT TO SUPPORT THE SANCTUARY'S LARGE WHALE ENTANGLEMENT RESPONSE MISSION.
