Description of Circumstances, including why only one source is reasonably available.

The ranger station is a remote site located at Stony Gorge Reservoir and the daily reporting site for BOR personnel. This ranger station is responsible for Stony Gorge Reservoir (Glenn County). The closest town to the ranger station, Elk Creek, is about three (3) miles away; the next, Stonyford, is about 20 miles away, and the next town from there, Willows, is about 25 miles away. Elk Creek is a small town with a population about 150 people. The only fuel station in the area is the fuel pump provided by Gandy and Staley Oil Co, Inc., which does not accept GSA Fleet credit cards, but does utilize a card lock system. A card lock system requires a unique card in order to dispense fuel and keep track of the usage. This system replaces the manual reconciliation of individual paper receipts as all usage is billed on a weekly or monthly basis. The purpose of this requirement is to utilize this card lock gas site.

This requirement will fulfill the need and benefit the rangers by allowing them to fill the vehicle gas tanks within close proximity to their reporting site. Going to any other gas station would not be advantageous to BOR due to distance and time. Rangers will be able to use the time they have saved to perform other duties such as patrolling and the maintenance of various campground sites for the public's use.
