Dustin Chantry

Dustin Chantry Lost Creek Logging Division, doing business as Lost Creek Logging, is a self-certified small disadvantaged business sole proprietorship based in Cusick, Washington, that provides forestry services to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service and the Department of the Interior — primarily logging, heavy equipment rental (dozers, excavators, water tenders), and personnel support for wildland fire suppression, disaster response, and natural resource management across the western United States. The vendor competes entirely as a prime contractor (100% of awards) under total small business set-asides on Forest Service Virtual Incident Procurement (VIPR) indefinite delivery contracts and related blanket purchase agreements.

Lost Creek Logging's customer concentration is heavily concentrated on the Department of Agriculture Forest Service, which accounts for 98% of the 46 awards in the source data. Within USDA Forest Service, the top two customers are the National Interagency Fire Center (11 awards, $3.3 million combined potential value) and Region 6-Pacific Northwest Region (30 awards, $1.9 million combined potential value). The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region placed one award ($146 thousand) for an excavator. Across all distinct customer agencies (5 total), Forest Service dominates both award count and dollar value. The divergence between the two rankings reflects the National Interagency Fire Center's role as the umbrella administrator for VIPR IDCs that feed task orders to regional offices, particularly Region 6-Pacific Northwest.

The vendor holds multiple positions on Forest Service VIPR indefinite delivery contracts, each valued at $250 thousand to $500 thousand with total small business set-asides and firm fixed-price terms. Lost Creek Logging currently sits on at least seven active VIPR IDCs across Regions 3, 5, and 6, with completion dates extending through May 2030. The top parent vehicles by task-order count are Blanket Purchase Agreement 1204H118T7101 (7 task orders, $183 thousand) and Blanket Purchase Agreement AG04H1B177123 (5 task orders, $131 thousand), along with multiple indefinite delivery contracts that generate individual delivery orders in the $26 thousand to $200 thousand range. Representative delivery orders include a $200 thousand delivery order for miscellaneous heavy equipment and personnel support in Regions 5 and 6 (awarded June 2025, completion August 2025), a $152 thousand delivery order for forestry services in the same regions (July 2024, completion August 2024), and a $26.7 thousand firm fixed-price delivery order for Wenatchee, Washington operations (September 2026, set aside for total small business).

Activity has remained relatively flat over the past five years — four awards in 2022 and 2023, five in 2024, three in 2025, and four in 2026 — with combined potential value of $6.1 million across all 46 awards and combined obligated dollars of $1.4 million (24% of potential). The vendor competes exclusively under total small business set-asides; no full-and-open or other set-aside categories appear across the prime footprint. Work is performed across Forest Service Regions 3, 5, and 6 (California, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, and Pacific Islands) as well as select locations in Idaho, with administrative oversight rooted in the National Interagency Fire Center's dispatch systems. NAICS concentration sits on 441110 (Support Activities for Forestry) for 44 of 46 awards, with PSC dominance in forestry fire suppression and presuppression services.
