Echo Mountain Invasive Plant Species Survey

The Echo Mountain Invasive Plant Species Survey, solicited by the USDA Forest Service under solicitation 12048924R0023, requires the conduct of invasive plant surveys within the Siuslaw National Forest. The scope of work involves surveying areas within 30 meters of roads in the Echo Mountain Fire area and 10 meters of roads throughout the broader forest. Work is expected to begin around July 1, 2024, and must be performed during seasons that optimize the detection of invasive species. The contractor is required to submit forms detailing the ecological and physical characteristics of all surveyed areas, regardless of whether invasive species are found. Any identified infestations must be mapped using a GPS unit and delivered as polygon shapefiles. This project is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside and is performed in Corvallis, Oregon, with the contract duration determined by a specific number of calendar days following the Notice to Proceed.
