Groveland Highway 120 Area Fuel Beaks Maintenance 5GG22162

CAL FIRE is funding the Tuolumne Fire Safe Council to perform mastication and hand thinning on four acres within the Stanislaus National Forest, specifically along Smith Station Road in Groveland, California, to reduce wildfire hazards posed by trees near critical infrastructure such as evacuation routes, fuelbreaks, powerlines, and structures. The work isauthorized under a NEPA decision dated February 24, 2017, and complies with California Public Resources Code Section 4799.05(d)(1) and applicable CEQA exemptions, eliminating the need for additional environmental review. The project does not include a formal contract value, period of performance dates, or detailed pricing, as the document is classified as a forecast and lacks typical procurement elements such as CLINs, delivery schedules, or FOB terms. The primary deliverable is the physical reduction of hazardous vegetation, with inspection and acceptance responsibilities held by CAL FIRE, the lead agency overseeing implementation. No formal contracting officer, contracting officer’s representative, or technical representative is named, but Roger Petersen of CAL FIRE’s Tuolumne Calaveras Unit serves as the primary point of contact for project coordination. The solicitation number is 5GG22162, posted on January 21, 2026, and no FAR clauses, representations, certifications, evaluation factors, or packaging instructions are included in the documentation, indicating this is a streamlined funding arrangement rather than a full federal procurement. No UEI, CAGE codes, socioeconomic status, or invoice submission details are provided, and the arrangement appears to be administratively managed under state authority with federal land jurisdiction.
