Description: A multi-year cooperative agreement with "Playa Lakes Joint Venture" will be entered into to facilitate effective and efficient coordination of migratory bird conservation efforts in the Playa Lakes Joint Venture region to meet the objectives of the partnership. First established in 1989, the Playa Lakes Joint Venture is directed by a Management Board that ensures that commitment and support is maintained to achieve the goals and objectives of the partnership. The Management Board has recommended establishing the cooperative agreement with "Playa Lakes Joint Venture" (Michael F. Carter, the registered agent of "Playa Lakes Joint Venture"). The single-source award to "Playa Lakes Joint Venture" provides continuation of the activities determined necessary by the Management Board to assure active conservation of important migratory bird habitats in the Playa Lakes Joint Venture region. The Management Board will provide guidance to the Playa Lakes Joint Venture Coordinator on direction and management of the joint venture throughout the term of the cooperative agreement. "Playa Lakes Joint Venture" has performed to the satisfaction of the Management Board on a previous, similar multi-year cooperative agreement for this project. Competition would have a significant adverse effect on the continuity of the effectiveness of operations of the migratory bird habitat conservation partnership, especially activities under various elements that are essential to the management and conservation of birds and their habitats (e.g., Biological Planning; Conservation Delivery; Research; and Communication and Outreach)
