All proposals must be submitted using the official Putnam County form included in the bid package, which can be obtained via the county’s website.

Fort Pickett Timber Sale Invitation for Bid # DACA65-B-27-01
Solicitation # DACA65-B-27-01
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is offering two separate timber sales on approximately 199.5 acres at Fort Pickett in Nottoway and Brunswick Counties, Virginia, with harvests organized across nine blocks labeled A through I. Item 1 involves an even-aged clearcut across Blocks A, B, and C totaling 103.2 acres, with an estimated volume of 5,492 tons of pine sawtimber, 679 tons of pine chip n saw, 4,445 tons of pine pulpwood, 76 tons of oak sawtimber, 991 tons of poplar sawtimber, 49 tons of miscellaneous hardwood sawtimber, 1,920 tons of hardwood pulpwood, and 3,003 tons of chips, the latter requiring a separate per-unit bid. Item 2 combines a clearcut on Block D (14 acres) with thinning operations on Blocks E, F, G, H, and I totaling 80.5 acres, with estimated volumes of 4,018 tons of pine sawtimber, 794 tons of pine chip n saw, 3,612 tons of pine pulpwood, 82 tons of oak sawtimber, 278 tons of poplar sawtimber, 259 tons of miscellaneous hardwood sawtimber, 1,424 tons of hardwood pulpwood, and 2,303 tons of chips, also requiring a per-unit bid for chipping rights. All timber is to be scaled by weight at the mill, not by volume, and sales are strictly unit-based. The contract mandates that all harvesting, skidding, processing, hauling, chipping, and site restoration activities be completed by 14 May 2027, with no extensions permitted under any circumstances due to federal protections for the endangered Northern Long-Eared Bat, which prohibits all tree felling between 15 May and 31 October each year. Harvesting is confined to areas outside streamside management zones as defined by the Virginia Forestry Best Management Practices for Water Quality, and no trees may be harvested within these buffers. Attendance at the mandatory pre-bid tour on Tuesday, 25 August 2026, at 9:00 a.m., is required for eligibility to bid. Sealed bids must be submitted by 1:00 p.m

The purpose is to reduce forest fuel conditions that influence fire intensity and mitigate risks associated with the spread of Libby Amphibole Asbestos contamination into Operable Unit 3 by performing ecological restoration, timber removal, road reconstruction, and tree planting activities.

The contract will be awarded on a best overall value basis, with technical approach weighted most heavily, followed by past performance and utilization of local workforces, with cost/price being approximately equal in weight to the combined technical factors.
