TFL 26 Timber Sale with Road Construction – Hunter

The City of Puerto Rico is soliciting competitive bids for a timber sale and road construction project within Tree Farm License 26 (TFL 26), specifically targeting timber harvesting in cut blocks HU29, HU30, HU31, and HU33 located off the Hunter Road Network. This procurement is exclusively open to respondents who have been pre-qualified through PVP 2024-004, creating a restricted bidding process. The project requires the successful bidder to complete 552 meters of logging road construction and timber harvesting, with all work mandated to be finished by December 31, 2025. Bidders must be prepared to handle all aspects of the timber sale, including harvesting standing timber, road construction, and maintenance, with specific attention to new waste and residue requirements related to chipping as detailed in Schedule A. The bid is structured as a Bonus Bid - Scale Based Timber sale, with proposals due by September 3, 2025, and originally posted on August 7, 2025.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly mentioned in the opportunity description, the procurement is limited to pre-qualified vendors through a previous qualification process. The contract appears to be a performance-based timber harvesting and road construction contract without clear indications of small business, minority-owned, or disadvantaged enterprise preferences. No incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure details are provided in the documentation. The financial structure suggests a scale-based compensation model where the winning bidder will likely be compensated based on the volume of timber harvested. Although no specific budget range is listed, the complexity of the project involving timber harvesting and road construction across multiple cut blocks indicates a potentially significant contract value. Interested contractors must carefully review Schedule A for comprehensive details about the project's specific requirements and technical specifications.
