Herbicide Application Services

The contract calls for the application of government-supplied herbicides across 156 acres of land within the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge to manage and suppress invasive plant species. The work is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 561730, which covers services related to waste management and remediation, indicating the ecological restoration focus of the task. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service through its Sat Team 3 is the overseeing agency under the Department of the Interior, and the operation is intended to preserve native habitat by reducing the spread of non-native vegetation that threatens the refuge's ecological balance. The solicitation was posted on August 5, 2026, with responses due by August 17, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. There is no set-aside designation specified for small businesses or other categories, and the place of performance and point of contact details are not provided in the data. The herbicide application must adhere strictly to federal protocols and environmental guidelines governing wildlife refuges, with the government supplying all chemical agents to ensure compliance with safety and conservation standards. Execution of the work will require precise timing and coordination to minimize disruption to native species and migratory patterns, particularly given the refuge’s role in supporting federally protected wildlife.
