About this opportunity
The Department of Agriculture Forest Service is soliciting offers for the South Fork Aerial Seeding & Mulching project, Solicitation #127EAX24R0031. The purpose is to implement an emergency seeding and mulching application to restore soil productivity and allow for vegetation recovery in critical high and moderate soil burn severity areas of the South Fork Fire on National Forest System lands. The majority of the work must be completed aerially due to the elevation and roadless terrain. The government will evaluate offers based on the acceptability of the offer, the offeror's capability including past performance and understanding of the requirements, and price, with non-price factors being significantly more important. Proposals are due by September 16, 2024.
This solicitation is set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 115310, Support Activities for Forestry. The contract will require applying a designated seed mixture and wheat straw mulch on up to 1,136 acres for seeding and 594 acres for mulching, to be completed by October 31, 2024. The work must be performed in the Ruidoso, New Mexico area on National Forest System lands.

The Purpose of this project is to implement an emergency seeding and mulching application to restore soil productivity in critical High and Moderate Soil Burn Severity areas of the South Fork Fire and allow for vegetation recovery to provide coverage to denuded or depleted burn areas on National Forest System lands. The majority of work is expected to be completed aerially due to the elevation and roadless terrain of the project areas. This emergency action must be accomplished so that vegetation can begin to grow at the end of the monsoon season and into autumn in the high country in September through October. Areas will be treated with a designated seed mixture and an application of wheat straw. Application will be done aerially on slopes between 20 to 65%.
