- Description
- The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has a requirement for the gather and removal of wild horses and burros from the public lands within the Great Basin Region (Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Utah and Wyoming, with the bulk of gathers occurring in Nevada). The BLM anticipates making multiple awards in which task orders will be placed as the need for a gather becomes necessary. Each awardee will be guaranteed a minimum of 2,000 animals to be gathered for the base year and 1,500 animals to be gathered for each option year, if so exercised. The contract will be firm fixed price, Indefinite Quantity, Indefinite Delivery (IDIQ). The period of performance will be from October 1, 2005 through September 30, 2006, with four more one year option periods. Gathers may be performed by drive trapping, bait trapping, or helicopter drive trapping. Therefore, the contractor shall supply all its own labor, equipment and materials (i.e. water trucks, helicopters, livestock transport trucks, panels, et al) necessary to perform gathers in all of the methodologies cited above. Gathers are expected to occur throughout the calendar year, except during foaling season. The contractor must be knowledgeable in the handling of large animals, specifically wild horses and burros. The contractor shall be reimbursed on a per head basis for the gather portion, a per feed day basis for the holding and feeding of animals and on a per head basis for animal transport. This requirement is 100% set aside for small businesses. The solicitation will be issued on or about May 16, 2005. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code for this procurement is 115210 and the business size standard is $6.0 Million. The solicitation will be made available on the Internet at http://ideasec.nbc.gov and http://www2.eps.gov/. No hard copies of the solicitation will be made available. Facsimile responses will not be accepted.
