About this award

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Region 4, awarded a $676,401 definitive contract to DDC 4C, LLC for fuel break mastication services at Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge in North Carolina on August 13, 2026, under a total small business set-aside.

DDC 4C is a tribally-owned, SBA 8(a)-certified small business. Work is performed at Pantego, NC, spanning six fire break sections totaling 233 acres across approximately 36,246 linear feet. The originating RFQ, posted May 27, 2026 with quotes due June 8, 2026, requires mastication of all vegetation, logs, stumps, and debris to ground level with chip piles limited to 6 inches or less across five Shore Drive units (208 acres at 350-foot width) and the Western Road unit (25 acres at 100-foot width). Due to very wet soil conditions with water tables within 6 inches, an amphibious pontoon excavator is mandated; wheeled and rubber-tracked equipment cannot operate effectively. The contractor provides all equipment, operators, personnel, transportation, fuel, parts, invasive species mitigation, spill containment, trash removal, erosion control, tree protection outside treatment areas, and damage repair liability. Work is conducted during business hours (8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Monday through Friday) from July 16, 2026 through the ultimate completion date of December 15, 2026. The contract is priced as firm fixed price with Service Contract Act wage rates applied to North Carolina counties of Dare, Hyde, Martin, Tyrrell, and Washington.
