About this file
This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOTFOC) document for a lease extension at 2468 Jackson Street in Laramie, Wyoming for the USDA Forest Service. The document justifies extending lease number 1282X991L3101 for 24 months starting July 1, 2024, after the current lease expires on June 30, 2024.
The extension covers 36,902 ABOA/36,902 rentable square feet of office space and 9,500 square feet of warehouse yard space. The extension is necessary due to delays in planning potential relocation to other federally controlled space due to organizational, financial and other uncertainties.

The document is signed by the USDA Lease Contracting Officer (Lexie Pitre), Leasing Specialist (Mallory Steffen), PPS Leasing Branch Chief (Sandi Sandry), and Director of Office of Property & Environmental Management (W. Scott Davis).
