About this file
This is Amendment 001 to USDA Forest Service (USFS) Solicitation 12363N26Q4204 for the Lumbre Stewardship Stewardship Contract located in the Carson National Forest, Camino Real Ranger District. The amendment, issued on July 24, 2026, includes site visit notes and a Question and Answers document from a solicitation site visit held on August 12, 2026.
The Q&A addresses key contracting details including mandatory and optional work items, access requirements, and material supply responsibilities. For the Lumbre contract, hauling is mandatory with both mandatory and optional items. Offerors must plan to include culverts and road materials in their budgets and are responsible for fully suspending logs from restricted areas outside inventoried roadless zones. Regarding optional items, awards are based on fund availability and mandatory work completion is not a prerequisite for optional item awards; both mandatory and optional items share the same performance period, with priorities determined by the awardee and forest. The amendment also clarifies mapping elements on the Contract Area Map, confirms no current private land access arrangements exist for certain units, and explains that road work included in these contracts was identified following the previous FERM BPA contract award. The site visit was attended by nine contractors and two USFS personnel representing organizations including Timber Wolf Sawmill, Forest Fitness, Conley Inc., K&B Timberworks, and AGL Wood Products.

• Question: What is the status of the Roadless Rule and can we use log trucks to remove logs in Alamitos Unit 2?
o Answer: Plan within your budget to remove logs fully suspended from Unit 2 to an area outside of the inventoried roadless area. We will check to see if anything has changed regarding the roadless rule and potential use of log trucks.
• Question: Is there access to the Alamitos units via the private land ownership?
o Answer: There are currently no arrangements to access the units via private land.
Unit 3 is an optional unit and there may be some consideration towards access through private land.
• Question: How do optional items work? Do mandatory items (work) need to be completed prior to optional items being awarded? Question tied to ongoing contractual work in Angostura SSC mandatory unit and everyone’s understanding up-front.
o Answer: Awarding optional items is based on availability of funds to award the work. Mandatory items do not need to be completed prior to optional, there are not differences in period of performance for any of these items so it would be up to the awardee and the forest to priority what work was awarded.
• Question: Can old roadbed leading from Serpent Lake road/trail down to Lumbre Unit 1 be improved for entry and exit of equipment? This would not be tied to hauling.
o Answer: This action is not identified as part of the contract, but we can present the request to the District Ranger for approval for access for equipment.
• Question: What do the orange/red lines mean on the contract area map (CAM) for Lumbre?
o Answer: Due to some mapping challenges, the orange/red lines coincide with Unit
4, which is location of optional item.
• Question: Will culverts and road material be supplied or does that need to be provided by the offeror?
o Answer: Plan within your budget to include culverts and materials. We will verify.
Attachment C includes all of the specifications and work needed for the different phases of the project.
• Question: Why were FR 89A and other roads not included in the current FERM BPA contract?
o Answer: Initial roads that were included in the FERM BPA were tied to previous planning and implementation work and miles were focused on open road systems impacted by the HPCC fire and designated as open on the Carson National Forest Motor Vehicle Use Map. These contract units and packages were identified and developed following the awarding of the FERM BPA contract.
