The location is approximately 15 miles northeast of Sitka and accessible only by boat or helicopter, with a 2-mile FAA-maintained road providing access to the work site from the FAA Dock at Symonds Bay. This pre-solicitation notice requests statements of interest and capabilities from qualified contractors, with responses due by September 15, 2025.
