USFS Plumas National Forest Ground Operations

The USFS Plumas National Forest Ground Operations contract encompasses routine maintenance activities for recreational facilities across the Beckworth, Mt. Hough, and Feather River Ranger Districts in Butte, Lassen, Plumas, Sierra, and Yuba Counties, California. Work includes managing trail tread surfaces and drainage systems, trail brushing, upkeep of campground sites and restrooms, repair and installation of signage and information boards, fencing and barrier maintenance, monitoring of site conditions, procurement of necessary equipment, and public outreach initiatives. No expansion of existing facilities or operations is permitted, and all activities are limited to the ongoing preservation and functionality of current infrastructure. The project is governed by CEQA Categorical Exemption 15301, which authorizes minor maintenance of existing public recreation facilities with no significant environmental impact. The California Department of Parks and Recreation, OHMVR Division, serves as the lead agency, while the U.S. Forest Service is the project applicant. The only designated point of contact is Scott Soares, Senior Environmental Scientist, who is responsible for environmental compliance but not formally assigned as a contracting officer or technical representative. No contract value, pricing details, or delivery schedule has been provided, indicating this document is a forecast rather than a fully executed solicitation. There are no identified clauses under FAR Sections I or H, no contract administration data including payment offices, invoicing methods, or COR/COTR assignments, and no evaluations, acceptance criteria, or packaging specifications listed. The procurement does not include information on offeror representations, socioeconomic status, or submission requirements such as deadlines, proposal formats, or electronic portals. The place of performance is limited to the specified ranger districts in California, and the solicitation number and contract type are not defined, suggesting this is a preliminary notice intended to inform potential respondents rather than a finalized procurement.
