About this forecast
The Bureau of Land Management, within the Department of the Interior, forecasts a new requirement with an estimated solicitation release date of January 1, 2027, to repair the Pony Creek Road (BLM Road 22-1W-22.4) after a March 2025 winter storm destabilized its subgrade, causing a 4.5-foot vertical settlement. The work falls under NAICS 238910, Site Preparation Contractors, with the set-aside to be determined. Repairs implement FHWA-approved Emergency Relief for Federally Owned Roads (ERFO) work, including horizontal and vertical alignment modifications, geosynthetic reinforcement of the embankment, and replacement of base and surfacing aggregates to restore timber haul, and ERFO funds transferred to BLM in August 2026 must be obligated before the end of FY27 or FHWA will reclaim them.
The estimated award value range is $250,000 to $499,000, and the place of performance is Oregon, USA. The point of contact is Evan D. Wernecke, Bureau of Land Management, at ewerneck@blm.gov.
Forecast text
In the March of 2025 a large winter storm caused the subgrade of BLM Road number 22-1W-22.4 (AKA: Pony Creek Road) to become unstable. The embankment slid and settled vertically approximately 4.5 feet. In the spring of 2025 BLM requested Emergency Relief for Federally Owned Roads (ERFO) funding from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). ERFO funding was approved by FHWA and funds were transferred to the BLM in August of 2026. This project intends to implement the funding to make the FHWA approved repairs to Pony Creek Road. These repairs include modifications to the horizontal and vertical alignments, adding geosynthetic reinforcement to the embankment, and replacing base and surfacing aggregates to support timber haul. These 2025 ERFO funds need to be obligated before the end of FY27 or FHWA will take the ERFO funding back. As an access road for both BLM and private industry, Pony Creek Road is used as a haul road to get timber from the woods to the mill. Pony Creek Road is also open to the public and offers access to public lands for a variety of dispersed recreation activities, including hunting and camping. The road is currently not passible. Failure to repair the road will result in sections of the road beyond the failure not receiving maintenance which will accelerate the deterioration of the road. In its current condition the road will not support timber haul, which will impact BLM and private timber harvests.
