    The document outlines a justification for awarding a contract to the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) for law enforcement patrol services across the Columbia Basin Project (CBP) operated by the U.S. Department of the Interior. The contract, valued at approximately $91,344.52 for the first year and totaling $484,960.46 over five years, is necessary for enforcing state and local laws on Reclamation lands. The service area encompasses 1,029,000 acres across four counties, requiring uniformed officers to patrol at least once a week from April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2030. The justification cites 41 U.S.C. 1901, indicating that WDFW is the only responsible source to provide the required services due to legal limitations on law enforcement.
