The following are questions/answers to supplement the Statement of Work in the solicitation, and in some cases may provide some different information than what is stated in the Statement of

Work. Where there are differences, quoters shall make pen and ink changes in those sections in the Statement of Work with the information provided in this Q and A.

QUESTION 1: Would SAJH be open to nominating English Camp and American Camp as separate historic district/cultural landscapes?

Landscapes (NPS 2004). This project is to expand the existing National

Register Nomination and add American Camp and English Camp as

Archeological Districts.

QUESTION 2: The SOW states that the recipient must include digital photographic views of each resource. Would it be possible to use photographs that are already existing as long as the quality is up to National Register Photo Policy?

ANSWER: Some existing photos may be available, but new photos will also be required if existing photos do not meet the policy or do not exist.

QUESTION 3: Can you confirm who the Tribal partners, and are there any Canadian First

Nations who have been consulted?

Nation, Swinomish Indian Tribal Community, Samish Indian Nation, Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe, Tulalip Tribes, Stillaguamish Tribe of

Indians, Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe, and Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe.

If the need arises to consult with Canadian First Nations, the park and the contractor would discuss feasibility.
