The Dutton Hill G-Z Stewardship Integrated Resource Service Contract (IRSC) is a firm-fixed price contract issued by the USDA Forest Service, Flagstaff Ranger District, Coconino National Forest, for forest restoration and timber management activities across approximately 8,829 acres divided into three primary treatment areas: Double Springs (699 acres), Dutton Hill (4,262 acres), and LO Pocket (3,868 acres). The work focuses on enhancing forest health, reducing hazardous fuels, and mitigating wildfire risk within the Wildland Urban Interface through mechanical and silvicultural treatments including thinning ponderosa pine stands, removing sawtimber and non-sawtimber trees, and preparing areas for low-intensity fire re-introduction. The project seeks to achieve multiple objectives: improving residual tree vigor and crown development, reducing fuel loading, restoring savanna and grassland vegetation, and supporting local forest product industries by providing timber and other materials. Proposals were initially due January 14, 2026, extended to January 23, 2026, with a performance period ending by November 30, 2029. The solicitation is conducted under Stewardship Contracting authority (16 USC 6591c), allowing full and open competition to meet land management goals that serve ecological and community needs. The contract emphasizes a best-value trade-off evaluation based primarily on technical approach, relevant past performance, and local workforce utilization, balanced against cost. Technical proposals must address detailed work plans, equipment, personnel, timing, and methods. Inspection and acceptance of work will be field-based, centered on verifying silvicultural prescriptions (e.g., basal area targets, spatial distribution of tree groups) and compliance with contract specifications. Timber volume estimates are preliminary and subject to final cruise data; pricing schedules include sawtimber, non-saw timber, and pulp material, with work and payment structured around multiple optional line items. Special contract requirements include rigorous fire prevention measures, labor compliance (notably with Farm Labor Contractor certification and H-2B visa regulations where applicable), cultural resource sensitivity, site-specific road maintenance obligations, and detailed tracer paint accountability for timber marking. Proposals must be electronically submitted with separate technical and price volumes, incorporating requisite certifications and representations, with payment handled through the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP.gov). Overall, the contract represents a complex, multi-year forest stewardship initiative integrating ecological restoration, wildfire hazard mitigation, and sustainable timber utilization under established federal acquisition and forest service regulations.
