Plumas County OHV Projet

Plumas County is managing a trail maintenance project on Plumas National Forest lands to sustain approximately 79 miles of motorized off-highway vehicle routes, ATV trails, and 4x4 roads through a partnership with Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship, a nonprofit organization. Work includes brushing, grooming, tread armoring with native rock, installation and replacement of signage using recycled materials, and coordination of volunteer workdays averaging 34 participants per event. Maintenance activities are designed to reduce soil erosion, improve trail safety, and enhance user experience while complying with Forest Service EM-7720-103 specifications and FSH 2309.18 design standards. Soil monitoring follows 2008 Soil Standards to ensure environmental sustainability. The project is exempt from full environmental review under CEQA Class 1 due to its nature as maintenance of existing recreational infrastructure. Performance occurs across multiple ranger districts within the Plumas National Forest including Mt. Hough, Beckworth, and Feather River areas, with inspections and acceptance conducted on-site by both Plumas County and the Plumas National Forest. Funding is administered through the Off-Highway Motor Vehicle Recreation Grants and Cooperative Agreements Program, with the Plumas County Facility Services Department overseeing coordination at their office located in Quincy, California. There is no publicly stated contract value, formal pricing structure, or defined period of performance, and the arrangement operates under a grant mechanism rather than a traditional federal contract with FAR clauses. Key contact points include Zachary Gately as Grant Manager and Michelle Abramson as Grants Manager, with no formal contracting officer, COR, or federal solicitation number provided. The project relies entirely on non-federal contract mechanisms, with no identified UEI or CAGE codes, socioeconomic certifications, security requirements, options, or invoice systems documented.
