The contract pertains to Hazardous Fuel Reduction Services for the Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge near Manteo, North Carolina, under solicitation number 140FS326Q0077, issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s SAT Team 3 within the Department of the Interior. The acquisition is structured as a Firm-Fixed Price commercial order set aside entirely for Small Businesses under FAR 19.5, with NAICS code 115310 for Support Activities for Forestry-Fuels Management Services. The period of performance is set from July 20, 2026, to December 31, 2026, with an option for the government to extend performance by up to six months. The primary objective is to create and maintain fuel breaks using mastication equipment to reduce wildfire risk, specifically targeting two key areas: the S Stumpy Point Fuel Break and the Parched Corn Bay A Fuel Break, each requiring a 40-foot-wide cleared corridor through dense vegetation of pond pine, red maple, and hardwoods, with tree diameters up to 20 inches and heights up to 70 feet. Equipment must be amphibious on pontoons for wetland and marsh areas, with wheeled vehicles strictly prohibited off-road. All vegetation and debris must be reduced to ground level with chip piles no higher than six inches, and all equipment must be cleaned of dirt, mud, and plant material prior to entry to prevent invasive species spread. Operations after December 15 are subject to air temperature-based restrictions to protect roosting bats, and contractors must maintain spill mitigation supplies and immediately report any fuel or fluid spills to the designated FWS point of contact. Submissions must be submitted via email to Keith Rose by 12:00 PM Eastern Time on July 8, 2026, and require full compliance with SAM.gov registration, including active status and a valid Unique Entity Identifier, as failure to provide this renders offers unresponsive. Proposals must include a detailed technical narrative on methodology, procedures, and schedule; identification of key personnel and a management plan; three verifiable examples of past performance from federal, state, or local government contracts with full documentation and references; and a completed SF-1449 form with all necessary signatures. Evaluation is based on a trade-off process where technical capabilities and past performance combined carry significantly more weight than price, and offers with unbalanced option pricing may be deemed unacceptable.
