This document appears to be a description of a federal contract opportunity for the installation of a new well at the Foresthill Seed Orchard. The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service is the federal agency seeking to procure this service.

The key details are: The existing wells on the opposite side of Foresthill Road run dry mid-season and do not provide enough water to irrigate the orchards on both sides of the road. Without this new well, the trees in the North Zone seed orchard are at risk of dying from lack of irrigation. The new well will prevent tree mortality and support the regional reforestation effort by providing a reliable water source. The project must be completed before summer heat and dry weather to improve tree health and resiliency. The Solicitation Number is 1297022R0054.
