# San Joaquin National Cemetery waste collection — planned sole source

The National Cemetery Administration states that the San Joaquin National Cemetery solid-waste collection requirement will be met through a sole-source arrangement because Merced County Waste Authority has a collection-service agreement covering haulers in the region. This is a notice of a planned procurement approach, not an invitation for competing quotes. The public record gives no response date, service quantities, price or estimated value.
