Contractors must demonstrate qualifications, equipment availability, workforce capacity, and proposed methodology for debris management operations. Pricing is structured on a per-ton basis for debris removal and disposal services to accommodate varying project scales and debris volumes.

The contract term extends through the duration of disaster recovery operations with potential extensions based on ongoing debris removal needs and funding availability. Funding derives from Oregon state disaster recovery allocations and potential federal reimbursement sources including FEMA Public Assistance grants.

Evaluation criteria assess contractor capability, experience with similar projects, safety protocols, and financial stability. Incumbent contractors and their performance records may be reviewed as part of the evaluation process.
