F--RPFO-FEDERAL RIGHT ANGLE 1 RECLAMATION

The U.S. Department of the Interior, New Mexico State Office, issued a Request for Quote under solicitation number 140L1726Q0017 for the reclamation of the Right Angle Federal 1 well pad and access road in Sandoval County, New Mexico, focusing on soil rehabilitation and revegetation within a 4.5-acre treatment area. The contract is a Firm Fixed Price agreement with a period of performance from July 1 to November 30, 2026, and is structured as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under FAR 19.5, requiring all offerors to be registered and active in SAM.gov at the time of submission. Work includes ripping the soil to a depth of twelve inches, disking, applying 400 pounds of fertilizer per acre, drill-seeding with certified weed-free seed using a disk-type no-till drill, applying two tons per acre of certified weed-free straw mulch, mechanically crimping the mulch, and removing and reinstalling 1,050 linear feet of fencing to the sagebrush perimeter. All equipment must be free of noxious weed propagules, and work is prohibited during wet soil conditions. A Lump Sum payment will be issued upon successful completion, routed electronically through the Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform (IPP), with mandatory attachments including contract number, service description, and period of performance. The contract incorporates multiple FAR clauses with deviations, including 52.212-4 with the DOI-AAAP-0028 IPP addendum for electronic invoicing, 52.204-13 for SAM maintenance, 52.222-43 for labor standards adjustments, and 52.232-33 requiring payment via electronic funds transfer. Contractors must enroll in IPP within three to five business days of award, and all correspondence must be copied to both the Contracting Officer and the designated Contracting Officer’s Representative. Technical performance is evaluated for compliance with specified reclamation methods including seeding, mulching, and fencing, while price is weighted as the most critical factor, with technical and past performance considered significantly less important. The contractor must comply with public safety protocols including signage and barricades, maintain site access with temporary gates while preventing livestock intrusion, restore all access points to original condition, and use sustainable products meeting EPA, USDA BioPreferred®, or SNAP program standards.
