What the gig needs

The National Park Service (NPS) has released on September 2, 2026, a business opportunity soliciting proposals to award a new ten (10) year concession contract to operate Guided Water Tours, Food & Beverage, and Retail Services in Lake Mead National Recreation Area. The NPS will host a site visit for entities interested in bidding on the opportunity on September 21, 2026. The site visit provides interested entities with an overview of the concession operation and a tour of the Concession Facilities (land and real property improvements assigned to the concessioner under the Draft Contract), as well as the Desert Princess vessel, which is government-owned personal property assigned to the concessioner. Site Visit Registration Registration is required to attend the site visit.

To register, contact Nicole Williams, Concessions Management Specialist, Lake Mead National Recreation Area at nicole_williams@nps.gov, along with a courtesy copy to Mark Juretschke, Commercial Services Program, National Park Service, Interior Regions 8, 9, 10, and 12, at PWR_Commercial_Services@nps.gov, no later than 12:00 pm (Pacific Time) on September 17, 2026. You must provide your name, contact information, the name of the entity interested in submitting a proposal that you represent, the primary contact for the entity, and the number and names of people in your party. Due to space constraints, the NPS limits the number of site visit attendees to a total of five (5) people per interested entity. Site visit participants are responsible for obtaining their lodging, meals, and transportation to the Concession Facilities.

The operation is located at 490 Horsepower Cove, Boulder City, NV 89005. Attendance at the site visit is encouraged, but not required, to submit a proposal. The NPS will not answer…
