The contract is a sole-source award under FAR Part 13 and the Simplified Acquisition Threshold for the delivery of CA-6 crushed limestone aggregate to the Two Rivers National Wildlife Refuge in Illinois, specifically along Calhoun Wetlands Road and Swan Lake Levee Road. The procurement was justified based on the unique proximity of the contractor, Calhoun Quarry, to the delivery site, its demonstrated reliability in past performance, and the absence of viable alternative suppliers.

Funding is provided through the ERFO program, though no specific contract value is stated, and the acquisition was structured without line-item pricing, cost data, or formal financial breakdowns. Delivery is performed via tailgate spread method, and acceptance is expected at the designated sites within the refuge, though no formal inspection criteria, quality standards, or packaging specifications are detailed.
