Salmon, ID SO 5-yr extension

The USDA Forest Service Salmon and Challis National Forests has awarded a sole-source lease extension for office space located at 1206 S. Challis Street, Salmon, Idaho. This action, identified by lease number 1284M892L0411, extends the occupancy of the Salmon-Challis Supervisor’s Office for a period of 60 months, commencing October 1, 2025, and ending September 30, 2030. The facility consists of 25,647 ABOA and 30,422 rentable square feet. The extension was executed without full and open competition under the statutory authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) and GSAR 570.405. This non-competitive approach was justified by delays in acquiring replacement federally controlled space and the need to maintain continuity of government operations. Market research conducted via CoStar was used to ensure that the rental rates remain fair and reasonable. The award is managed by the USDA Forest Service Region 4, with administrative oversight provided by the Office of Property and Environmental Management.
