About this forecast
The Bureau of Land Management, within the Department of the Interior, plans to award one task order for surveys of Endangered Species Act-listed Northern Spotted Owl needed to clear timber sales, with solicitation release estimated for January 1, 2027. The Resource Management Plan requires these surveys before timber harvest to assess species presence or absence within a seasonal work window, and results inform individual timber sale planning and show BLM's ESA compliance. The requirement falls under NAICS 115310, Support Activities for Forestry, and cites the O&C Act, the ESA, Executive Order 14225, and the Resource Management Plan as authority.
The estimated award value range is $250,000 to $499,000. Work is performed in Oregon, USA, within the Coos Bay District, where the supported timber sales are located. Billy L. Bullard of the Bureau of Land Management (blbullard@blm.gov) is the point of contact.
Forecast text
TIMBER PRODUCTION. This action would award one task order to conduct surveys for Endangered Species Act (ESA) listed Northern Spotted Owl necessary for timber sale clearances. The timber sales are located within the Coos Bay District. Northern Spotted Owl surveys are required by the RMP prior to timber harvest to assess the presence/absence of the species [O&C Act, ESA, EO 14225, Resource Management Plan]. Without these surveys, BLM cannot demonstrate ESA compliance. Surveys are conducted during a seasonal window of work, are required per current RMP, and results inform individual timber sale planning.
