Site Visit Questions and Answers CC-BLRI011-13, Peaks of Otter, Rocky Knob, and Doughton Park on Blue Ridge Parkway 1. There are some places in the PSF4 worksheets where the calculations formulas result in errors - should we fix them ourselves? See Modification No. 1. 2. Is there a specific list of Deferred Maintenance? The list of Deferred Maintenance is provided in the prospectus announcement posted at http://www.nps.gov/commercialservices/blri011-13.htm. Please refer to Exhibit H, Maintenance Plan Attachment under the Additional Files Banner. 3. Peaks of Otter Lodge is currently open year round, but the Operating Plan specifies that the Lodge must be open between April 1 and November 30. Not year round? The Lodge has historically been open year round; however, since visitor demand during the off season months (December through March) is slow, the Service will not require the Concessioner to operate during the off season months. Therefore, minimum operating dates required by the Operating Plan correspond with the busy season of April 1 through November 30. The next concessioner may remain open year round, if it chooses. The Service maintains road access and utilities at Peaks of Otter year round. 4. Is there an exemption for "craft sales" when calculating franchise fee amounts? Franchise Fees are paid based on a percentage of Gross Receipts. The Draft Contract defines the exemptions to Gross Receipts. Section 416(b) of the National Parks Omnibus Management Act of 1998 exempts the revenues derived by NPS concessioners from the sale of United States Indian, Alaska Native, Native Samoan, and Native Hawaiian handicrafts from concession contract franchise fees to encourage Native American handicraft sales by concessioners. Concessioners must mark sales items that are authentic native handicrafts with a label attesting to the item's authenticity, and maintain sales receipts for those items in order to be eligible for franchise fee exemption.
