This contract award represents the exercise of option year two under a broader support services agreement. The ceiling value for this option year is $38,043.62. The contract is designated as a total small business set-aside and will continue through September 30, 2029, supporting the observatory's critical geophysical monitoring mission in coastal Alaska.

The contractor is also responsible for minor troubleshooting, equipment repairs, adjustments, and additional observations as requested.
