About this file

This is a Questions and Answers document for the HWA Treatment IDIQ contract (12444726Q0032), with a question deadline of 25 June 2026. The document addresses three key inquiries regarding tree treatment operations and procedures.

The Forest Service will not physically tag individual trees requiring treatment at most sites; instead, trees will be GPS'd with spatial data provided via task order. At minimum, one treatment stand will have trees selected based on diameter specifications. Treatment area boundaries will be clearly delineated through georeferenced PDFs compatible with Avenza or similar mapping applications, with GPS files also available for handheld device navigation. Regarding treatment methodology, the Forest Service will specify the exact treatment method for each site in the task order once pricing is received from this solicitation, rather than allowing the applicator to independently determine the most appropriate method.

Questions and Answers

Last Day for Questions 25 June 2026

1) When visiting the identified locations, will the individual trees requiring treatment be marked?

Answer: The individual trees for most sites will not be tagged, but they will be GPS’d. We will provide that spatial data with the task order. At least one stand will have trees treated based on diameter.

2) Will the boundaries of each treatment area be clearly marked on-site?

Answer: We will provide georeferenced PDFs for use in Avenza or a similar app. We can also provide GPS files for use in a handheld device to identify boundaries.

3) Will the Forest Service specify the treatment method for each tree, or should the applicator determine the most appropriate method?

Answer: Once we receive pricing from this solicitation, the task order will specify exactly which treatment method to use at each site.
