Description

***NOAA'S ACQUISITION & GRANTS OFFICE, EASTERN ACQUISITION DIVISION-NORFOLK, NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE (NOS) OFFICE OF COAST SURVEY (OCS) INTENDS TO NEGOTIATE, ON A SOLE SOURCE BASIS, UNDER AUTHORITY OF FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), WITH CHRIS WASHBURNS BOAT YARD, INC OUT OF SOLOMONS, MD FOR VESSEL DRY DOCK STORAGE AND EQUIPMENT STORAGE CONTAINER RENTAL.

***THE SOLE SOURCE DETERMINATION IS BASED ON THE NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION'S (NOAA) REQUIREMENT THAT THE R/V BAY HYDRO II IS CURRENTLY IN DRY STORAGE (OUT OF THE WATER ON BLOCKS) AT CHRIS WASHBURNS BOAT YARD IN SOLOMONS, MD, IN AN INOPERABLE CONDITION.

BARGE, SPECIALIZED WIDE LOAD TRANSPORT OVER THE ROAD, ETC) TO AWAIT THE NECESSARY REPAIRS WHEN THE NECESSARY REPAIRS WILL BE MADE BY CHRIS WASHBURNS BOAT YARD. IF THE VESSEL WAS RELOCATED FOR STORAGE, IT WOULD HAVE TO BE TRANSPORTED BACK TO CHRIS WASHBURNS BOAT YARD FOR THE REPAIRS TO BE COMPLETED AND WOULD NOT BE COST EFFICIENT NOR IN THE GOVERNMENT-S BEST INTEREST.

THE ENGINES, GENERATORS, REDUCTION GEAR, STEERING PUMPS, AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PARTS AND EQUIPMENT FROM THE VESSEL ARE BEING STORED IN A RENTED 40- STORAGE CONTAINER AT CHRIS WASHBURNS BOAT YARD TO PROTECT THEM FROM THE ELEMENTS SO THEY STAY IN GOOD MATERIAL CONDITION WHILE THE REQUIRED VESSEL REPAIRS ...
