The Department of Agriculture Forest Service awarded Mud Lake Oil Inc. a single award blanket purchase agreement to provide fuel support for prescribed burning operations in Idaho. Under the base BPA valued at $100,000, Mud Lake Oil will deliver fuel via truck and operator to multiple burn sites on the Caribou-Targhee National Forest through December 2023. The first associated task order, valued at $19,373.60, calls for fuel truck and operator services in Ammon, Idaho to support burns through the end of 2023. Additionally, a $12,885.30 firm fixed price call was issued for base item fuel truck and operator, with fuel added onsite during burns, performing in Ammon through December 2023. Originally solicited through an open market procurement with no set aside, the Forest Service aims to procure up to 300 gallons of fuel per site to support its fire management program across the region.
The BPA and subsequent calls allow the Forest Service flexibility to obtain critical fuel delivery and operator services for prescribed burns across lands under its responsibility. By establishing delivery requirements and notifying the contractor in advance of scheduled burns, the agency can effectively manage fuel consumption and ensure controlled fires proceed safely and as planned. The single award arrangement with Mud Lake Oil streamlines ordering and supports the timeliness of operations throughout the performance period.
