Notice of Intent To Issue a Prospectus for the Operation of Two 
Hostel Facilities at Golden Gate National Recreation Area

SUMMARY: The National Park Service will be releasing a concession 
Prospectus authorizing continuation of two hostel operations within 
Golden Gate National Recreation Area. The operations are located at 
Fort Mason (in San Francisco at the north end of Franklin Street) and 
Fort Barry (in Marin Headlands northwest of the Golden Gate Bridge). 
Both operations are year-round and provide modest overnight 
accommodations for visitors to the park. The facility at Fort Mason can 
accommodate approximately 155 overnight visitors and the Fort Barry 
facility can accommodate approximately 66 overnight visitors. Capital 
improvements to both facilities of approximately $400,000 will be 
required during the first year of the contract. The average annual 
gross receipts for the combined operations are approximately $1.7 
million dollars. The term of the new contact will be for ten (10) 
years. There is no requirement to purchase any of the personal and real 
property from the current concessioner. There is an existing 
concessioner, which has operated satisfactorily, under the existing 
concession permits and has a right of preference in renewal.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The cost for purchasing a Prospectus is 
$30.00 by mail or $25.00 if picked up in person at the below address. 
Purchasing of the Prospectus will be by check only (NO CASH). The check
