PWS 1.0 Background on the Government’s Requirement

US Wildland Fire Service, Yosemite National Park is requesting a Prescribed Fire Support Module forty-six (46) days annually to implement hand or machine pile ignitions, broadcast burn ignitions, unit or pile preparation, prescribed fire holding functions, and prescribed fire unit mop-up. Yosemite Fire and Hazard Fuels program has conducted extensive fuels reduction work which has created a need for prescribed burning and includes a backlog of machine and hand piles within NPS administered land.

Multiple broadcast and piled units would be burnt under the direction and supervision of USWFS Prescribed Fire Burn Boss and/ or Contracting Office Representative.

Services shall be non-personal. The Government shall neither supervise contractor employees nor control the method by which the contractor performs the required tasks. Under no circumstances shall the Government assign tasks to, or prepare work schedules for, individual contractor employees.

PWS 2.0 General Scope of Work

Prescribed Fire Modules may be ordered by the US Wildland Fire Service, Yosemite Fire for unit(s) when the Government is conducting prescribed fire operations and needs assistance in one or more prescribed fire related tasks. These operations include the following: prescribed burn preparation, ignition assistance, holding assistance, burned unit patrol, and mop-up of burned unit(s). Prescribed Fire Modules can be ordered for any one of the above operations, a combination, or all the operations.

Services required in the implementation of prescribed burning include:

unit preparation using chainsaws and/ or handtools to cut and prune, construct handline or pull back around piles, limb reserve trees, trim resprouting vegetation near piles or unit boundaries;

broadcast fire, hand or machine pile ignition using handheld drip torches or fusees;

holding prescribed fire units during initial burn-down to ensure prescribed burn does not spread outside of established unit or control lines;

chunking of or re-piling of burnt or burning material to promote complete combustion;

mop-up using chainsaws and handtools to cut and/ or dig to extinguish smoking or smoldering material;

and to suppress fire spread outside of prescribed fire units or controls lines using chainsaws or handtools to cut or dig control lines to stop undesired fire spread.

The contractor shall provide 46 days of Prescribed Fire Support Module to prep, ignite, hold, and mop-up broadcast, hand pile, or machine pile units upon request from USWFS Yosemite Fire, under the supervision and direction of assigned USWFS Prescribed Fire Burn Boss. The contractor is asked to provide costs for total 46 day annual periods, as well as a per-day rate for the defined service.

Place of Performance:

All prescribed burning operations will occur on Yosemite National Park administered public lands managed by the National Park Service in Madera, Mariposa, Tuolumne, and Mono Counties California.

Solicitation No. 140P8526Q0105 Page 6 of 31

Many established but independent fuels reduction units exist requiring prescribed burning within Yosemite National Park related to forestry, fuels reduction, and forest health projects.

Each unit location will require all identified tasks to accomplish broadcast, hand or machine pile prescribed burning. Each activation period of Prescribed Fire Support Module will begin with a briefing at a predetermined location where a designated, English speaking, module foreman will receive an in-depth operational briefing from USWFS/ DOI Contracting Officer’s Representative and/ or USWFS Prescribed Fire Burn Boss. At the briefing, the Government will provide the Contractor with the following:

A. Briefing on Prescribed Fire Plan and Objectives, Standards, and Assignments for preparation, ignition and holding assistance for prescribed fire operations.
