Rivercane Site Suitability Assessment for Post-Hurricane Helene RecoveryThe USDA Forest Service, Southern Research Station in Asheville, North Carolina, intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed price contract to Arundinaria Gigantea Consulting, LLC for a rivercane site suitability assessment related to post-Hurricane Helene recovery efforts. The contract, valued at $67,455, will run from August 15, 2026, through September 30, 2028, and falls under NAICS code 541690 with a $19 million size standard. The work will focus on evaluating rivercane’s role in stabilizing streambanks and its resilience during high-water events, comparing sites where rivercane was present versus absent in Helene-affected watersheds in western North Carolina. Additionally, the contractor will analyze physical landscape characteristics of at least 10 existing rivercane sites using publicly available data to identify key indicators—such as geomorphic position, stream energy, watershed features, and flow accumulation—that define optimal locations for future restoration. This procurement is being conducted under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) as a non-competitive action not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, and the notice is published solely to inform potential sources of the government’s intent without inviting competitive proposals. Responses are voluntary and will not be compensated; they must be submitted by August 3, 2026, to Heather Harkley and Nestor Rivera Gonzalez via email and must include business details, CAGE and SAM UEI codes, small business status if applicable, and a statement of capability outlining relevant experience and expertise. While the notice anticipates posting on SAM.gov on July 25, 2026, it explicitly does not constitute a request for quotes or bind the government to any specific acquisition method, and the decision to proceed without competition remains entirely at the government’s discretion. All submitted materials become government property.

Full Description

Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) has a requirement to conduct smolt and/or adult Atlantic salmon enumeration activities (see Appendix A: location map). This will involve the installation, operation and removal of a counting fence as well as associated scientific sampling activities. DFO is responsible for providing scientific advice regarding the status of Atlantic Salmon stocks within the Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) Region to aid in the management and conservation of these stocks. Currently, information on the status of Atlantic Salmon is collected through the use of monitoring facilities, such as counting fences and fishways on various rivers located throughout the region. This information is then used to infer the overall trends in abundance of Atlantic Salmon stocks within NL.

Atlantic Whitefish Holding, Raising and Captive-BreedingThe Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada has awarded a sole-source contract to Dalhousie University’s Aquatron Laboratory for the captive holding, rearing, and genetically managed breeding of Atlantic Whitefish, an endangered species protected under the Species at Risk Act. The work, which spans from contract award through March 31, 2031, includes the care of wild-caught Young-of-the-Year fish collected annually, as well as the development and implementation of a mating strategy designed to preserve genetic diversity across generations. The facility must be located within Nova Scotia, no more than 150 kilometers from the wild collection site, to ensure safe and timely transport. It must include a variety of tank sizes, full mechanical systems for year-round temperature-controlled freshwater and seawater, fail-safe infrastructure with backup generators and after-hours alarms, and access to aquatic veterinary services. Staff must be available seven days a week to provide continuous care and welfare support. The contractor is required to demonstrate extensive qualifications, including a minimum of ten years’ direct experience operating aquatic systems, at least two years in aquatic research, proven experience in hatchery and grow-out aquaculture, specific expertise in endangered aquatic species, and a history of managing projects of similar complexity. Personnel must hold a Bachelor’s degree in aquatic sciences or aquaculture, possess certification in Recirculating Aquatic Systems or ten years of equivalent experience, and maintain a Good Animal Practice Certificate from the Canadian Council on Animal Care. All fish must be individually identified using PIT tagging, and detailed records on inventory, survival, breeding, and genetic data must be maintained. Deliverables include annual mid-year and year-end reports, as well as a comprehensive multi-year report agreed upon by October 1 of the prior year, submitted in Microsoft Word and PDF formats. The contract, valued at $648,323.00, is justified as sole-source due to Dalhousie University’s unique possession of the captive breeding stock, its existing SARA Section 73 permit, and unmatched operational expertise, making any alternative supplier biologically and legally unfeasible. Intellectual property developed under the contract vests with the contractor, but the Crown retains broad, royalty-free rights to use all results for conservation and research purposes.
