About this file

This is Amendment 0002 to Solicitation 140FS326R0009, issued by the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) SAT Team 3 on July 6, 2026. The amendment addresses concerns raised by industry regarding the MS Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge project. The closing date remains July 27, 2026 at 2:00 PM, and all other terms and conditions remain unchanged.

The accompanying Questions and Answers document clarifies equipment requirements for the project. Regarding equipment selection, a skid steer with approximately 100 horsepower equipped with a forestry mulching head is adequate for most areas and recommended for tight operating spaces; however, for heavy density timber stands, a larger horsepower machine would be preferred for greater efficiency. For portions of the project involving wetland or wet ground conditions, equipment capable of safely performing the work and meeting all contract requirements is acceptable, with Low Ground Pressure (LGP) equipment recommended. Points of contact include Technical POC Sami Gray at (228) 217-3256, Alternative POC Rodolfo Duncan at (561) 436-4521, and Contract POC Fred Riley at Fred_riley@ios.doi.gov.

Questions and Answers

Question 1: Is a skid steer with approximately 100 horsepower equipped with a forestry mulching head acceptable for this project, or is the Government expecting a larger type of machine?

Answer 1: A skidsteer is adequate for most areas and recommended for tight operating spaces. There will be heavy density stands of timber that a larger HP machine would be preferred. It will be more efficient.

Question 2: We understand portions of the project may involve wetland or wet ground conditions. If the equipment is capable of safely performing the work and meeting all contract requirements, would that type of equipment be acceptable?

Answer 2: Yes. Recommend LGP equipment.
