. (a) Where the nature of the work is historic restoration for
the state park system, as determined jointly by the director and the
Director of Parks and Recreation, the department may authorize the
carrying out of the project directly by the Department of Parks and
Recreation.
(b) If the estimated total cost of any construction project or

in writing and award the work to the lowest responsible bidder or
reject all bids. However, the director may authorize the Department
of Parks and Recreation to carry out work in excess of fifty thousand
dollars ($50,000) under the provisions of this section by day labor

bids, or the acceptance of further bids is not in the best interests
of the state. The Department of Parks and Recreation shall
establish, by regulation, criteria to be considered by the Department
of Parks and Recreation in requesting authorization from the
director to perform all or part of a project by day labor.
