I. Abstract
The information gathered in this
collection will be used to assess the
efficacy of current and hypothetical
park climate change messaging in
cultivating both a sense of concern and
inspiration to act among visitors. The
information will be used primarily by
NPS administrators, program managers,
interpretive specialists, and educators.
Results from the collection will be
shared broadly across the NPS for
application in the development, design,
and delivery of climate change
communications products.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
National Park Service intends to award
the temporary concession contract, TC–
FIIS007–17, to a qualified person (as
defined in 36 CFR 51.3) that is currently
operating under the existing contract. If

ACTION:
Public notice is hereby given
that the National Park Service proposes
to award a sole-source concession
contract for the conduct of certain
visitor services within Lake Mead
National Recreation Area (Lake Mead
NRA) for a term not to exceed five (5)
years. The visitor services include the
provision of wireless Internet access
within remote but developed areas of
Lake Mead NRA.
DATES: The term of the sole-source
concession contract will commence (if
awarded) no earlier than sixty (60) days
from the publication of this notice.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Director of the National Park Service
(NPS) may award a concession contract
non-competitively upon a determination
that extraordinary circumstances exist
under which compelling and equitable
considerations require the award of the
concession contract to a particular
qualified person in the public interest
(36 CFR 51.25). Contracts that are
awarded non-competitively pursuant to
36 CFR 51.25 are commonly referred to
as ‘‘sole-source’’ contracts.
The NPS has determined that
BladeBeam, Inc. is a ‘‘qualified person’’
as defined by 36 CFR 51.3, and has
determined that compelling and
equitable considerations exist because
of the difficulty of providing wireless
Internet in the remote but developed
areas of Lake Mead NRA, and because
BladeBeam, Inc. is willing to make a
significant investment with no
guaranteed return.
