Thank you for taking the time to rephrase your comments into
questions.
First, all comments and questions will be gathered. Then the
staff at Point Reyes and the Pacific West Regional concessions staff will
work together to answer the questions and determine what if any modifications
need to be made to the prospectus. Next the question and answer list is
reviewed by a Department of the Interior Solicitor. Then the questions and
answers will be released to the public in the same way the prospectus was
released. At this time I do not know if there will be a public forum in
addition to the question and answer list.
All of this has to take
place before the solicitation closes and provide potential offerors enough
time to revise and submit their proposals, if necessary.
You can read
about this business opportunity or recieve a prospectus in the following
ways: The prospectus announcement is posted on the government Federal
Business Opportunity website at: www.FBO.gov If you enter "PORE005"
in the search box you should find the announcement. The full prospectus can
be found at the following website: http://www.concessions.nps.gov/images/webpages/Prospectus/PORE005.cfm
If
you would like to order a printed copy of the prospectus, send a check or
money order for $50 ( to cover printing and shipping costs) to our offices
at: 1111 Jackson Street, suite 700,(ATTN: Concessions) Oakland, CA 94607 and
a prospectus will be FedEx'd to you. If you would like to pick one up
personally the cost is $40. The check or money order should be made out

I hope this provides more clarification on
the process.
