About this file

This is an Addendum to an Invitation to Bid issued by the Louisiana Office of State Procurement on behalf of the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries for herbicide treatment services. The addendum, issued September 18, 2026, modifies Attachment B (Specifications) of RFx Number 3000026671 prior to the bid opening scheduled for October 6, 2026, at 10:00 AM Central Time. The primary change reallocates responsibility for herbicide provision from the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries to the contractor. The scope of work involves ground application of prescribed herbicide mixture to approximately 550 acres of small trees at the Dewey Wills Wildlife Management Area in the Little River Basin, with a mandatory pre-bid conference held on September 21, 2026. The contract term extends up to 36 months with two optional 12-month extensions available at the same prices and terms. Treatment is scheduled between September 1 and October 31, 2026, with anticipated retreatment of approximately 20 percent of trees in September 2027.

Under the revised specification, the contractor is now responsible for providing all chemical herbicides, water for tank mixes, and disposal of empty containers, representing a significant change from the original procurement terms where the Department supplied herbicides. Contractors must be licensed with the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry with at least one registered Commercial Applicator certification in General Forestry (subcategory 2a) and must maintain comprehensive insurance coverage including workers compensation, commercial general liability, and automobile liability. Unit pricing must be all-inclusive of all costs associated with service delivery. Payment terms provide 90 percent upon initial project completion and 10 percent upon retreatment completion, with payment made within 30 days of invoice. Bidders who have already submitted bids must acknowledge receipt of this addendum or submit bid revisions prior to the October 6 opening, with revisions to be delivered by mail, hand delivery, courier, or fax to the Office of State Procurement.
