The site is roughly one mile up a hiking trail and may require the use of a helicopter for transport.

Set Aside: Total Small Business Set-Aside (FAR 19.5)
Magnitude: Between $50,000.00 to $110,000.00
In accordance with FAR 36.204, for construction contracts, we are required to state the magnitude of a project using price ranges, both in terms of its physical characteristics and estimated price range. However, it's crucial to understand that these price ranges are broad categories, and selecting one does not imply that our budget is at the higher end of that range. The intent is to give a general sense of the project's scale without revealing the Government's precise estimate. For instance, if we categorize a project as being "Between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000," it doesn't mean our budget is close to $5,000,000. It simply means the estimated cost falls within that bracket. The actual value could be anywhere within that range.

Turn right (South)on NF-660, Lamoille Canyon Road, and drive 11.7 miles to the roads end parking lot. Hike on foot up the island lake trail 1.4 miles to the project site.
