Prescribed Herbivory (Grazing) Services

The contract specifies the use of goats or sheep for targeted grazing to manage fine fuels in ecologically sensitive areas where mechanical clearing or prescribed fire is not feasible. This approach is intended to reduce vegetation that contributes to wildfire risk while preserving native plant communities and minimizing disturbance to sensitive habitats. The service is being procured as a subcontract under NAICS code 112410, which pertains to animal production excluding aquaculture, and is administered by the Fish and Wildlife, Region 1 - Northern Region, Redding and Eureka, with performance located in California, specifically in the 96104 zip code area. The posting date indicates this opportunity was made available in July 2026, and the place of performance is restricted to areas where alternative fire or mechanical methods are unsuitable, ensuring the grazing service aligns with conservation and safety objectives.
