Large Wood Harvest Staging - Anthony Creek Uplift

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is soliciting bids for the harvest and staging of woody materials to support the Anthony Creek uplift project within the Elkhorn Wildlife Area. The project aims to restore approximately 1.5 miles of the Anthony Creek floodplain by creating engineered habitat features. The selected contractor will be responsible for harvesting and staging 70 trees for racking material and 36 unanchored trees, as well as 1,850 cubic yards of conifer slash material. These materials must be sorted and staged across six designated areas within the project site. All services must be completed by June 30, 2027. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder, with specific preferences applied for Oregon Small Business Enterprises and services performed entirely within Oregon. Bidders must submit their proposals via OregonBuys.gov by November 16, 2026, including required documentation such as the Bid Cover Sheet, Reference Check Form, and COBID Certification. Because the project is funded by the United States Fish and Wildlife Services, it is subject to federal terms and conditions, including the Davis-Bacon Act for contracts exceeding 2,000 dollars and the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act for contracts over 100,000 dollars. The contractor is also required to comply with the Oregon False Claims Act and state tax laws.
