          DIGEST

          Protest challenging an agency's evaluation of awardee's experience is denied where
          the record shows that the awardee had relevant experience.
          DECISION

          L&N/MKB,   Joint Venture, of Kirkland, Washington, protests the award of a contract
          to Larkor-MZT Team  II, a Joint Venture, of Homedale, Idaho, under request for
          proposals No. N2011101190 issued by the Department of the Interior, National Park
          Service, for a wastewater treatment system.

          We  deny the protest.

          BACKGROUND

          The RFP, issued as a competitive section 8(a) small business set-aside, provided for
          the award of a fixed-priced contract for the installation of a new vacuum-assisted
          wastewater collection system within the Lower Elwha Klallam Indian Tribe
          Reservation in the state of Washington. This work consists of converting tribal
          residences from septic tank waste systems to a reservation-wide waste collection
          system. The new  collection system is composed of approximately four miles of
          vacuum  mainlines, approximately three miles of service lateral lines, structures to
          convert from gravity to vacuum collection, and a vacuum and lift station pump house



          1 Because a protective order was not issued in connection with this protest, our
          discussion is necessarily general.
