The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service Rocky Mountain Region awarded a $750,000 single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Aaris LLC, a woman-owned small business, for prairie dog plague management services. The contract provides for the application of insecticides and rodenticides to control prairie dog populations and mitigate plague outbreaks on the Medicine Bow Routt National Forest and Thunder Basin National Grassland in Wyoming from 2021 through 2025.
Under this IDC, the Forest Service has issued several firm fixed price delivery orders to Aaris LLC for specific prairie dog management projects, including a $50,000 order for dusting prairie dog colonies on the Thunder Basin National Grassland, a $45,850 order for plague management on the Thunder Basin National Grassland, and a $28,420 order for fipronil baiting on the Medicine Bow Routt National Forest and Thunder Basin National Grassland. These contracted services support the Forest Service's land management programs and the Department of the Interior's black-footed ferret reintroduction efforts in the region.
