Contracting with the federal government is a highly regulated process governed by a maze of statutes and regulations. Government contracts law involves assisting businesses in complying with the complex set of procedures that must be followed in order for companies to provide goods and services to governments (federal, state or municipal) or challenging the actions of the government or a third party in entering into or executing a government contract for goods or services.
Kapowsin is an unincorporated community located approximately 25 miles (38 kilometers) south east of Tacoma in Pierce County, Washington, United States. Located on the north end of Kapowsin Lake, the community was a thriving lumber town in the early part of the 20th century, with a high school, shops, and trades, and a population of about 10,000. After a decline in the timber industry, the town diminished in size into a neighborhood center, with a store, tavern, post office, fire station and grange hall. Kapowsin High School was abandoned in 1949 after being damaged in an earthquake. Kapowsin is located in the Bethel School District (www. bethelsd. org), and Kapowsin Elementary School is located nearby. Secondary students attend Frontier Junior High and Graham-Kapowsin High School, which opened in 2005. Tacoma Rail's freight line to Morton, Washington, runs through the town.
