ATTACHMENT A.pdf

This is an Attachment A document supporting a single source contract advertisement issued by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services for marine debris removal services on aquacultural leases in the vicinity of Cedary Key, Florida. The department intends to enter into agreements with aquaculture parcel leaseholders, sublessees, or authorized users who hold active State-Owned Sovereignty Submerged Land Aquaculture Leases to serve as specialized contractors for the debris removal project. Prospective vendors interested in providing these services must submit relevant information to the designated contact person by the advertisement end date, which represents a statutory 15-business-day advertisement period. Additional project details are referenced in the attached PUR 7776 document.

The document indicates this is a single source procurement rather than a competitive bidding process, meaning the department has identified specific categories of eligible contractors—namely, existing aquaculture lease holders or authorized users—rather than opening the opportunity to general public competition. No pricing terms, specific quantities, timelines, or contract duration details are provided in this attachment itself, with those specifications contained in the referenced PUR 7776 documentation.
