About this opportunity
The USDA Forest Service is seeking forest restoration and mechanical fuels reduction services through the Bull Meadow G-Z Stewardship Integrated Resource Service Contract (IRSC) in the Fremont-Winema National Forest, Lakeview Ranger District, Oregon. The primary objectives include reducing conifer encroachment, stand density, and fuel loading across 2,527 acres to improve forest health and mitigate wildfire risk through timber removal, wildlife area designation, timber cruise volume determination, and treatment of small diameter conifer and juniper trees. The contract will be awarded using a best value source selection method as a firm fixed price commercial services contract under Stewardship Authority Section 604 of Public Law 108-148. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for June 4, 2025, at 9:00 AM, with quotes due by June 25, 2025, at 4:00 PM Pacific Time. The solicitation falls under NAICS code 115310 (Support Services for Forestry) with a size standard of $34 million, and all work must be completed by December 1, 2025, for Items 1-3 and 6, and by December 31, 2027, for Items 4 and 5.
This procurement is structured as full and open competition with no set-aside designation used, despite earlier references to small business considerations in some documentation. The estimated timber removal volume is 46,320 tons with a minimum acceptable offer of $3.87 per ton, though no specific total contract value is disclosed in the primary solicitation documents. The project encompasses approximately 2,527 gross acres divided into 10 distinct units, including 1,538 acres of non-saw treatment and 209 acres of juniper treatment areas. Performance will occur in Lake County, Oregon, specifically northwest of Lakeview between the towns of Lakeview and Valley Falls, covering portions of townships T 36S R 20E, T 37S R 20E, and T 37S R 19E. The contract includes comprehensive requirements for road maintenance, traffic control, fire prevention planning, and adherence to Service Contract Act wage determinations for forestry workers.
