Att_3_Seed_Analysis_Request_Form_revised_072024.docx

This is a Seed Analysis Request Form template that contractors must complete to authorize testing and associated fees for seed lots being delivered to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under the FY26-2 Fall Consolidated Seed Buy solicitation. The form is divided into two sections: Section A, completed by the contractor, requires information including seed vendor name and contact email, seed species and variety details, eco-region and seed zone, seed lot number, spreadsheet ID, delivery locations with corresponding pound quantities (designated for Boise, Ely, and Shoshone locations), and test selections such as purity, tetrazolium (TZ), noxious weed analysis for all Western States, species check for annual non-native bromes, and rush testing. The contractor authorizes the seed laboratory to release test results to both the vendor and BLM and bears all sampling and testing costs.

Section B is completed by the sampler or BLM personnel and documents the sampling process, including the sampler's affiliated agency, name, signature, and date; sample location destination; total certified and non-certified pounds; number of bags selected and sampled; source identification; and sampling date. All test results are sent to the contractor's listed email address and to blm_id_seed_all@blm.gov, with testing fees charged directly to the contractor identified in Section A. This form must be submitted to the BLM for every seed lot being delivered as part of the procurement contract.
