Added: Mar 22, 2012 4:46 pm The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Lakeview District Office, is seeking qualified sources to conduct vegetation surveys to provide data for recording, monitoring, and analysis of forest stands in the Klamath Falls resource area. The work site includes reforestation units and natural stands that are mostly 10 to 80 acres in range. The project units are between 4000 =BF 6000 feet in elevation and found on mostly gentle landscape.

The surveys include Extensive Stand Exam and Canopy Cover Surveys that are generally in natural, uneven aged, conifer dominated stands. Extensive Stand Exam Surveys are variable and fixed plot surveys in stands ranging approximately from 30 years to those over 200 years. The Canopy Cover Surveys will require the use of a denisometer and paper form.

The project objectives are to capture information on stocking , stand composition, basal area, age, stand volume, and site characteristics to help increase the resistance and resiliency to disturbance and to retain the natural stand diversity within plantations over 30 years old as well as natural conifer stands. This acquisition will be set aside for all small businesses with a business size standard of $7.0 Million. The applicable NAICS code is 115310. The solicitation is estimated to be issued by 3:00pm (PST), April 06, 2012.
