Wallowa Whitman NF Rx Burn Services Call Order

The Department of Agriculture Forest Service R6-Pacific Northwest Region is issuing a notice of intent to place a call against an existing Blanket Purchase Agreement for prescribed burning services in the Wallowa Whitman National Forest. The procurement involves forestry fuels management services including prescribed burning services, equipment daily rate requirements, and burn module daily rate requirements under NAICS Code 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry). This solicitation represents a call order against BPA #1240BE23A00XX that was previously established under FAR 13.303 through a competitive process. The procurement is categorized under PSC F003 (Natural Resources/Conservation- Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression), and interested vendors can request the full solicitation from the contracting officer Andrea Pollock at andrea.pollock@usda.gov. The deadline for offers is September 25, 2025, at 4:30 PM PT, with the solicitation becoming inactive 15 days after this due date.

This opportunity is set aside exclusively for small businesses, as the underlying BPA was awarded to multiple small business contractors through a competitive selection process. The place of performance is specified as Baker City, Oregon 97814, indicating that the prescribed burning activities will be conducted in this geographic area within the Wallowa Whitman National Forest. The solicitation notice indicates this is Notice ID 1240BE25Q0096, and an Interested Vendors List will be created and made viewable to all potential vendors. The government file mentions that this action is being conducted under FAR 13.303-5 for placing calls against the established BPA, suggesting this is part of an ongoing contract vehicle for forest management services. No specific award values, quantities, or service timelines are detailed in the available documentation, though the focus on daily rates for equipment and burn modules suggests this will be a time-and-materials type arrangement.
