About this opportunity
The US Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District St. Paul is seeking a contractor to provide comprehensive herbicide noxious weed control services at the Lac qui Parle Project near Watson, Minnesota. The procurement requires furnishing all necessary management, supervision, personnel, materials, supplies, tools, equipment, and transportation to apply chemical control targeting common weeds such as dandelion, plantain, thistle, clover, and creeping jenny across approximately 30 acres of turf grass and rip rap areas around Marsh Lake and Highway 75 flood control structures. The contractor must possess a valid state commercial herbicide applicator's license, achieve a 90% or better kill rate while preserving turf grass and trees, use only EPA-registered herbicides, and maintain comprehensive liability insurance of at least $1,000,000 per incident. Critical requirements include submitting a detailed herbicide plan, providing post-application documentation, and complying with strict safety and environmental protection protocols. The proposal submission deadline was August 19, 2025, with the contract performance period scheduled from August 22, 2025 through September 30, 2025.
This procurement is designated as a 100% Total Small Business set-aside with a size standard of $9.5 million under NAICS code 561730 (Landscaping Services). The contract will be structured as a firm fixed-price arrangement, though specific award values and unit pricing details are not disclosed in the solicitation documents. The performance period spans approximately five weeks, with herbicide applications scheduled for July and September targeting the 30-acre treatment area. Personnel working on this contract must complete mandatory Anti-Terrorism and Operational Security training within 30 days of award, undergo background checks through federal databases, and comply with strict access control procedures when entering Corps of Engineers facilities. The work location is listed as Watson, Minnesota, though there appears to be an error in the solicitation indicating United Arab Emirates as the place of performance.
