Camp Rilea Invasive Scotch Broom Control

The Oregon Military Department is seeking a contractor to perform invasive Scotch Broom control at Camp Rilea Armed Forces Training Center in Warrenton, Clatsop County, Oregon. The Request for Quotation (RFQ) W912JV25C3003 solicits comprehensive vegetation management services across approximately 386.7 acres, with two primary treatment priority areas totaling 160.2 acres and an additional 226.4 acres of Scotch Broom areas. The scope of work requires mechanical removal and chemical treatment of invasive Scotch Broom (Cytisus scoparius), utilizing hand tools and herbicides while maintaining a strict 3-foot buffer around sensitive wetlands. Contractors must submit a completed pricing submittal form with a unit price per acre, covering all project costs including mobilization, labor, equipment, herbicides, personal protective equipment, travel, GPS mapping, and reporting. The project must be completed by September 30, 2026, with quotes due by September 4, 2025, at 2:00 P.M. Pacific Time. Bidders are required to provide a valid U.S. driver's license for site access and coordinate activities with the designated point of contact to avoid conflicts with military training.

While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are explicitly stated in the documentation, contractors must meet several key qualifications. Bidders will need to demonstrate expertise in invasive plant management, herbicide application, and the ability to work in environmentally sensitive areas. The contract will be awarded based on the most competitive unit price per acre, with actual payment determined by verified acreage treated as confirmed by GPS logs and Oregon Military Department inspection. The estimated project value is not directly specified, but can be calculated by multiplying the proposed unit price by the total treatment area of 386.7 acres. Contractors will be responsible for detailed documentation, including completing the AGO Form 200-1-16 Pesticide Reporting Form for each application, which requires comprehensive tracking of pesticide use, application methods, weather conditions, and applicator licensing. The project aims to improve ecosystem function and training area usability at the Camp Rilea facility by systematically removing invasive Scotch Broom vegetation.
