About this file

This Statement of Work establishes requirements for the purchase, delivery, and stacking of 164 tons of 70-pound small square hay bales for the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Idaho Falls District, to be delivered to the Challis BLM Wild Horse Corrals located at 504 Upper Hot Springs Road, Challis, Idaho 83226. The hay must be delivered prior to August 26, 2026, with partial loads permitted. The procurement comprises two hay types: 70 percent (114.8 tons) of a 60/40 alfalfa/grass mix and 30 percent (49.2 tons) of timothy and/or equivalent grass species, with sedges and slough grass explicitly excluded. All bales must weigh 70 pounds ± 10 percent in small square format with 2 or 3 strings, be properly cured and stored, and contain no mold, dust, noxious weeds, or foreign material.

All hay must meet BLM nutritional standards requiring alfalfa and mixed hay to be leafy and green, grass species to be clean and mature, and Relative Forage Value (RFV) of at least 90 unless otherwise approved. Certification as weed-free under NAISMA or state-recognized standards is mandatory, with contractors required to provide bale tags, load certificates, or official documentation as proof. All hay undergoes inspection at delivery, with weed-free certification and bale quality verified; non-compliant or rejected loads must be replaced at no cost to the Government. The Government reserves the right to award multiple contracts to satisfy the full 164-ton requirement, with contracts potentially split by tonnage, hay type, or delivery date. Invoices must clearly list delivered tonnage by hay type and delivery location with the contract purchase order number included. Primary points of contact are Kevin Lloyd, Wild Horse and Burro Specialist at the Challis Field Office BLM, (208) 833-6968, and Jason S. Wright, Resource Coordinator at Idaho Falls District BLM, (208) 524-7542.
