Prescribed Burn Operations

The contract involves conducting controlled, low-intensity burns across approximately 105 acres at Naval Air Station Lemoore to reduce accumulated dry grass fuels and lower the risk of uncontrolled wildfires, while simultaneously supporting live fire training activities essential to military readiness. The work is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 562910, indicating it falls within the waste management and remediation services sector, specifically focused on environmental cleanup and hazard reduction. The burns will be carried out with strict adherence to safety protocols and environmental regulations to ensure minimal impact on local ecosystems and nearby communities. The project is administered by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, with the place of performance centered in Lemoore, California. Although specific details regarding timelines, budget, or contractor requirements are not provided, the posting date of June 17, 2026, suggests the work is anticipated to occur in the near future, likely during the dry season when fuel conditions are optimal for safe prescribed burning. The initiative reflects a coordinated effort between military operations and state fire management agencies to maintain operational safety and ecological health on the installation.
