About this forecast
The Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management is forecasting a new requirement for aerial herbicide application using imazapic on the Second Flat Fire, with estimated solicitation release on January 1, 2027. The work targets invasive annual grasses that dominate the area near Burns/Hines, Oregon, where the fire interval is 3-5 years compared with more fire-resilient native grasses, with the stated goal of protecting the community and building landscape resilience. The requirement also includes reestablishing forage to support grazing on the treated landscape.
The estimated award value range is $500,000 to $999,000, and the fire affected 8,000 AUMs that will be lost if treatments are not allowed to proceed. Point of contact is Brian M Christensen, Weeds, Bureau of Land Management, at bchristensen@blm.gov.
