RX Fire Effects LLC, a small disadvantaged and veteran-owned business based in Weyers Cave, Virginia, was awarded a $250,000 Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement by the National Interagency Fire Center for water handling services supporting fire suppression, all-hazard incident response, and prescribed project work across East Zone Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9. The contract operates under a firm fixed price structure as part of a multiple-award set-aside for total small business and is effective from February 6, 2026, through May 30, 2030. The solicitation, posted in February 2025, sought qualified vendors capable of providing water handling equipment, materials, supplies, transportation, and trained personnel to support emergency response operations within the specified regions. RX Fire Effects LLC was selected based on demonstrated capability to meet procurement qualifications, including active System for Award Management registration, a valid Unique Entity ID, and proven experience delivering specialized resources for incident response operations.

The contract enables rapid-deployment procurement of water handling resources through the Virtual Incident Procurement system, allowing U.S. Forest Service dispatch centers across the East Zone to activate the contractor's capabilities on an as-needed basis for wildland fire incidents and related emergency operations. Performance is expected to accommodate extended operational periods, including 16-hour daily shifts, with compensation determined by rates established in the executed agreement. The contract structure permits optional utilization by interagency cooperators, including the Department of Interior, National Park Service, and Bureau of Indian Affairs, expanding the accessibility of water handling support across multiple federal land management entities. RX Fire Effects LLC's extensive portfolio of federal contracts and demonstrated expertise in wildland fire management and resource provision positions the company to fulfill the dynamic and unpredictable demands associated with emergency incident response across geographically dispersed national forest regions.
