The amendment corrects the evaluation criteria in Section 8, renaming it from "Freshwater/Anadromous Waterbody Structures" to "Boating Access/Recreational Facilities."

All materials must comply with Build America, Buy America Act specifications. An Alaska Business License is required at time of award.
