City Of Myrtle Creek

The City of Myrtle Creek is a local government entity located in Oregon, registered in SAM.gov since December 2019, with a current registration valid through May 2026. As a U.S. local government, the city provides critical infrastructure and support services to federal agencies, particularly focusing on airport and water treatment facilities. Its federal award portfolio demonstrates a strategic approach to leveraging municipal resources to support broader federal operational needs, including emergency response, infrastructure improvement, and pandemic-related economic relief.

Through federal contract awards, the City of Myrtle Creek primarily provides aircraft parking and storage services to the U.S. Forest Service, specifically supporting emergency response and firefighting operations in the Umpqua National Forest region. The city's Myrtle Creek Airport serves as a critical infrastructure point for Forest Service air assets, with contracts ranging from $9,000 to $11,000 for specific delivery orders. These contracts are part of a larger $250,000 Indefinite Delivery Contract and do not utilize any set-aside designations. The primary funding agency for these contracts is the U.S. Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Region (Region 6), which relies on the city's airport infrastructure to facilitate rapid mobilization during wildfire season and other emergencies.

The city has received several significant federal grants, most notably a $2,380,000 Cooperative Agreement from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for water infrastructure improvement. This grant, part of the Congressionally Mandated Projects program, focuses on installing a third skid at the Myrtle Creek water treatment plant to increase system capacity and redundancy. Additionally, the city received two COVID-19 related airport grants: one from the American Rescue Plan Act and another from the Coronavirus Relief and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act. These grants provided economic relief funds for airport operations, including costs related to cleaning, sanitization, personnel, and combating pathogen spread. The city has also received a sub-grant from the Oregon Department of Energy for an electric vehicle for municipal use, indicating a commitment to sustainable transportation.

The city holds an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the U.S. Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region, valued at up to $250,000 and valid through May 2028. This multiple-award IDC is specifically focused on providing parking and storage services for Forest Service aircraft at the Myrtle Creek Airport. The contract supports emergency response and firefighting operations in the Umpqua National Forest region by leveraging the city's airport infrastructure. Under this IDC, the city has already issued delivery orders, including a $9,000 order for aircraft parking services through September 2024 and an $11,000 order with an ultimate completion date of August 13, 2025. The IDC does not have a set-aside designation and allows the Forest Service to quickly mobilize air assets during critical incidents.
