About this opportunity
The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service has issued a Notice of Intent to Award a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) Call Order for reforestation and non-native invasive species control services at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina. This competitive BPA Call Order, which exceeds $20,000, was posted on April 6, 2026, with a response deadline of April 13, 2026. The opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting participation to qualified small businesses. The Federal Contract Opportunity ID is 69d41f4532cd8e80d403d0cd, and the work falls under NAICS category 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry) and PSC category F099 (Natural Resources/Conservation-Other). This is a Notice of Intent rather than an active solicitation, serving as an announcement of the Forest Service's planned procurement action.
The primary objective of this BPA Call Order is to control non-native invasive plant species and native invasive hardwoods that threaten forest health, hinder reforestation efforts, and degrade wildlife habitat across the Francis-Marion, Sumter National Forests, and Savannah River Site. Contractors will be responsible for implementing selective herbicide treatments through various application methods, including foliar applications, basal bark treatments, hack-and-squirt techniques, and cutstump methods, as well as potential additional tasks such as site preparation, tree planting, timber stand improvement, and hemlock woolly adelgid treatments. All contractors must provide labor, equipment, materials, safety measures, documentation, and transportation, including an enclosed, insulated cargo trailer, in full compliance with environmental protections and worker safety protocols. A critical requirement is that all personnel must comply with site-specific security and access requirements for the Savannah River Site, which is a restricted-access facility as detailed in Attachment 3. Small businesses interested in this opportunity should monitor for the formal solicitation release and prepare documentation demonstrating their capability to meet the technical performance standards and special contract requirements outlined by the Forest Service.
Notice text
BPA Call Order Exceeding $20,000 Synopsis Requisition 1166919.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Forest Service (USFS), intends to issue a competitive Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) Call Order under multiple‑award BPAs for Reforestation and Non‑Native Invasive Species (NNIS) services at the Savannah River Site (SRS) in South Carolina.
This effort focuses on controlling non‑native invasive plant species and native invasive hardwoods that threaten forest health, hinder reforestation and hurricane recovery efforts, and degrade wildlife habitat. To accomplish these objectives, the contractor will apply selective herbicide treatments, including foliar applications, basal bark treatments, hack‑and‑squirt techniques, and cut‑stump methods. The contractor is responsible for providing all labor, equipment, herbicide materials, safety measures, training, documentation, and transportation necessary to perform the work. All activities must adhere to stringent environmental protections, worker safety protocols, and technical performance standards. This project directly advances long‑term natural resource management goals by reducing invasive vegetation competition and improving ecological conditions across treated forest stands.
Additional tasks under the resulting BPA Call Order may include chemical and mechanical site preparation, tree planting, manual and mechanized timber stand improvement, invasive plant treatments, hemlock woolly adelgid insecticide application, pre‑commercial thinning, and mastication. Because the Savannah River Site is a restricted‑access facility, all personnel must comply with the site‑specific requirements outlined in Attachment 3, Special Contract Requirements. The contractor shall furnish all necessary labor, materials, equipment, tools, transportation—including an enclosed, insulated cargo trailer—supervision, and any other resources needed to perform the work in accordance with BPA specifications.
This synopsis is not a solicitation; it serves only to announce the Government’s intent to issue a competitive BPA Call Order under BPAs previously posted on SAM.gov. No proposals or responses are requested, and the Government will not provide feedback regarding this notice.
