About this opportunity
The United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service is seeking a small business contractor to provide hay for wild horses and burros at the Double Devil Wild Horse Corrals located in Modoc National Forest. The solicitation requires the procurement of 685 total tons of hay, specifically 600 tons of grass hay and 85 tons of alfalfa, delivered in 6-string rectangular bales. Acceptable grass hay varieties include Meadow, Blue, Timothy, Orchard, Coastal, and Bermuda, with Triticale and wheat hay explicitly excluded. Quotes are due by February 11, 2025, at 11:00 AM PST, with submission required via email to Kari Hughes. Evaluation criteria emphasize hay quality, with strict requirements that the hay must be well-cured, free of dust, mold, foreign materials, blister beetles, and other potential horse-harming contaminants.
This procurement is a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 111940 (Hay Farming) with a size standard of $2.5 million. The contract period of performance spans from February 15, 2025, through September 30, 2025, with monthly deliveries to the facility in Alturas, California. The vendor will be responsible for delivering, unloading, and stacking hay, with deliveries accepted seven days a week between 8:00 AM and 4:30 PM. The facility currently houses over 600 horses with fluctuating population numbers due to adoptions and gatherings. Each delivery must include certified weight slips, and bales must be either 6-string (4'W x 4'H x 8'L) or 3-string (18"W x 18"H x 36"L), with round bales not permitted. The facility can store approximately 200 6-string bales at a time, and the delivery location is 1430 County Road 74 in Alturas, CA 96101.
