AI Contract Overview
The Federal Highway Administration’s Central Federal Lands Highway Division intends to award a sole-source firm-fixed-price contract to the California Coastal Commission for the purchase of habitat mitigation credits related to the CA FLAP SCR T5(1) Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail project. This action is necessary due to unavoidable impacts on six sensitive habitat types—Palustrine Emergent Wetland, Arroyo Willow Riparian Forest, Arroyo Willow Scrub, Coastal Shrub/Scrub, Sand Dune, and Coast Live Oak Forest—totaling approximately 13.04 acres. Mitigation is mandated by multiple federal and state agencies including the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, California Regional Water Quality Control Board, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the California Coastal Commission under the Clean Water Act and related regulations. No existing mitigation banks are available in the project area that can meet the specific ecological requirements, making sole-source procurement the only feasible option under current conditions. A formal Justification and Approval for Other Than Full and Open Competition has been prepared in accordance with regulatory standards. An opportunity exists for interested parties to provide evidence that competitive procurement would be advantageous to the government, but responses must offer clear, compelling, and convincing justification to change the intent to proceed non-competitively. All submissions must be sent via email to cflacquisitions@dot.gov with the specified subject line by the deadline of July 22, 2026. The government retains full discretion to determine whether competition will be pursued based solely on the information received. No costs incurred by respondents will be reimbursed, and only written responses will be considered. The contract, identified by solicitation number 6982AF26SN000003 and NAICS code 237310, is managed by the Department of Transportation’s Central Federal Lands Highway Division with primary point of contact Ryan Phillips in Lakewood, Colorado, and performance will occur in Monterey, California.
