About this file

This document provides justification for a sole source acquisition of base course rock from Dolese Quarry in Hartshorne, Oklahoma. The acquisition is needed to construct and maintain gravel roads at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point in North Carolina, and will be carried out under simplified acquisition procedures with an estimated amount of $3,500. Previous solicitations of base course from other local quarries did not meet specifications for compaction or other requirements. Only the material from Dolese Quarry has been shown to meet the necessary ODOT standards to prevent issues like pot holes and erosion. An indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract that was previously used has now terminated, making this an emergency purchase until new contracts can be established. Future actions will aim to remove barriers to competition.
