The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Western Acquisition Division (WAD) intends to award, on a sole source basis, a contract to Blue Hill Observatory & Science Center Inc. with one (1) 12-month base period and one (1) 12-month option period under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).

Accordingly, access to and from the Observatory and instrument shelter is an issue, including issuance of passes, badges, separate keys for those areas of the building used by NWS, and security. Therefore, anybody other than an NWS employee or observer provided by the Blue Hill Observatory & Science Center would not be acceptable.
This is a historical weather site that has existed at this location with very little change in condition dating back to 1885. This site must remain at this location and be staffed by personnel with authorized access to the facility in order to provide weather observations and a continuous climatological record that are of value to the NWS, NOAA or any other users of this data. Moving the site to any other location would invoke a change to the record that would cast doubt on its accuracy, usefulness and longevity, and result in a degradation of service and information of value to the science communi... - Documents:
