The USDA Forest Service is issuing a pre-solicitation notice for disaster and recreation site repairs at Sierra National Forest in Madera County, California. The project involves procuring and installing various constructed features including bulletin boards, barriers, trash enclosures, picnic tables, signs, food lockers, and fire rings, as well as constructing outdoor access routes, campsites, tent pads, roads, parking spurs, and drainage structures at Placer Campground and Little Jackass Campground. This construction project requires strict compliance with Davis-Bacon Construction Wage Rates and will be awarded as a firm-fixed-price contract. The work locations are accessible via specific routes from the Bass Lake Ranger District Office, with detailed directions provided for both campground sites. The full solicitation RFP-127EAW25R0029 is tentatively scheduled to be posted on SAM.gov on or around July 14, 2025, and all interested parties must monitor the platform for amendments and updates.
