This fixed price award, issued as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 115310, tasks a contractor with reducing hazardous fuels through the removal of shrubs and woody vegetation in the North Zone of the Monongahela National Forest grazing allotments in West Virginia. Managed by the USDA Forest Service, the project encompasses approximately 582 acres across nine grazing allotments within the Cheat/Potomac and Greenbrier Ranger Districts, including the Whidney, Elleber Sodds, Lambert Hollow, White Sods, Tingly, Little Tingle, Allegheny Battlefield, Pharis Knob, and Cunningham Knob allotments. The scope of work involves machine mowing and brush cutting of woody vegetation under five inches in diameter to enhance habitat and reduce fire risks, with specific technical requirements for stream channel buffers and wildlife habitat protection.
The contract requires delivery within 60 days of the award, with a typical performance window from mid-August through mid-October. Payment is based on actual acres mowed as verified by GPS and visual observation by a Contracting Officer's Representative, rather than initial aerial estimates. Bidders were evaluated based on price per acre and past performance, including their equipment specifications and safety precautions. The project is part of a broader Range Allotment Hazardous Fuels Reduction and Integrated Resource Management initiative to improve forest health and safety.
