Payette NF Krassel Ranger District Annual Airstrip Maintenance Back Country Airstrips

The Forest Service is seeking a contractor to provide annual maintenance for up to four backcountry airstrips located within the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness. To ensure compliance with wilderness laws, all work must be performed using nonmotorized horse-drawn graders. Primary responsibilities include grading, filling animal burrows, and removing saplings to maintain the integrity of the airstrips. In addition to runway maintenance, the contractor will be responsible for maintaining associated facilities, including kiosks, hitching rails, and vault toilets. This scope of work includes the periodic movement or replacement of toilet structures as required. The project is managed by the Payette National Forest Krassel Ranger District and is centered in McCall.
