About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Farm Production and Conservation Business Center awarded a $72,000 firm fixed-price purchase order to Nicopeco Farms LLC, a small business, for tree planting services in Alexander County, Illinois, under the Agricultural Conservation Easement Program-Wetland Reserve Easement (ACEP-WRE) initiative managed by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). This modification increased the contract scope from 50 acres to 60 acres, requiring the contractor to plant bare root tree seedlings at a density of 435 per acre using a 10x10 foot grid spacing. The work encompasses three primary tasks: mobilization, site preparation via rotary mowing, and tree planting with species including Bald Cypress, Water Hickory, North Pecan, Overcup Oak, Pin Oak, Willow Oak, and Nuttall Oak, with all seedlings meeting a minimum 12-inch height and 7/32-inch diameter specification.
The performance period runs from September 30, 2025, through June 1, 2026, with tree planting activities scheduled for Fall/Early Winter or Spring 2026 (March 1 through May 31) contingent upon adequate soil moisture and ground conditions. The procurement was designated as a 100% total small business set-aside under NAICS code 115112 and evaluated using lowest price technically acceptable methodology. The government requires that at least 80% of trees in sample plots meet contract specifications to ensure adequate planting compliance. The NRCS ACEP-WRE program supports wetland restoration and conservation on private lands, making this contract part of the agency's broader effort to enhance ecological function and water resource protection in Illinois.
