This is a Invitation for Bid (IFB) file related to a wildland fuel reduction project issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing in coordination with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, the US Wildland Fire Service, and the Green River District BLM. The solicitation seeks services to create a linear fuel break through mechanical removal and shredding of standing live and dead pinyon and juniper trees, saplings, and brush using wheeled or tracked mechanical mulchers, shredders, or masticators. The project encompasses approximately 722 acres, and all work must be completed between October 18, 2026, and December 15, 2026. No mandatory site visit is required, though potential bidders are strongly urged to inspect the site and assess all general and local conditions that may affect contract costs. The IFB is anticipated to result in a single contract award to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor.

Participation in this solicitation is limited to prequalified contractors only, and vendors must not submit bids if they are not on the current pre-approved/pre-qualified vendor list. The contractor must furnish all labor, equipment, supervision, transportation, operating supplies, and incidentals necessary to complete the project. Vendors are required to guarantee their pricing through project completion, and the contract award will be made based on lowest cost evaluation among responsive and responsible bidders.
