prior to expiration (August 30) and a formal notice of intent to extend 15 days prior to expiration (September 15). If neither of those occur, the contract will expire and the transition / NTIA’s disengagement will take place. Therefore, NTIA will need to
have sufficient time to evaluate and assess well before the end of August.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
