About this file
This document is a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) Request for Carrizo Cane Eradication issued by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) on December 22, 2025. The ROM solicits price estimates for three distinct task areas involving Carrizo Cane removal: (1) Aerial Mapping & Site Preparation at $800/acre, (2) 25-Foot Buffer & River's Edge treatment at $15,800/acre, and (3) 25-Foot Inland Zone treatment at $37,300/acre. The comprehensive eradication process includes aerial mapping, mechanical cutting, herbicide treatment, root removal, reseeding with native species, monitoring, and maintenance, with specific requirements such as establishing buffer zones, protecting native vegetation, and conducting drone herbicide treatments.
Vendors are required to submit their ROM pricing via email to donna.r.mcmullen@cbp.dhs.gov by January 6, 2026 at 5:00 PM ET. The pricing should cover all listed functions, which range from initial site preparation to 12-month monitoring and maintenance. The project involves precise environmental management techniques, including mechanical cutting of Carrizo Cane to 4-6 inches, shallow root plowing, rhizome removal, native species reseeding, and ongoing treatment of regrowth, with specific attention to minimizing environmental disturbance and protecting native ecosystems.
