About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Sacramento District is seeking a contractor to acquire and propagate 8,054 containerized mitigation plants for the Lower American River Erosion Protection Project 3B. This supply-based contract focuses on plant acquisition, propagation, maintenance, and delivery for specific habitat restoration efforts, including Elderberry associate plantings and Shaded Riparian Aquatic with pollinator habitats. The contractor will be responsible for comprehensive seedling development, which entails acquiring required seeds, sowing, watering, weeding, and maintaining overall seedling health to produce viable container-sized saplings. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the pre-solicitation notice, contractors will need to demonstrate capabilities in nursery production and native plant propagation. The opportunity was posted on April 2, 2025, with responses due by April 17, 2025, indicating a relatively short response window for interested small businesses.
The contract is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, specifically categorized under NAICS code 111421 for Nursery and Tree Production, with a Product Service Code (PSC) of F010 for Natural Resources/Conservation Seedling Production. Though the exact contract value is not specified, the requirement for 8,054 containerized plants suggests a significant scope of work. The contract appears to be part of a larger environmental mitigation effort for the American River Common Features 2016 project, indicating potential long-term ecological restoration goals. Contractors will need specialized knowledge in plant propagation, native species cultivation, and precise plant maintenance protocols to successfully meet the project's technical requirements. The project's focus on habitat restoration, particularly for elderberry and riparian ecosystems, suggests a nuanced understanding of local environmental conditions will be crucial for successful contract performance.
