- Description
- NRCS will soon be requesting services under a Firm-Fixed Price contract for site preparation and/or tree/shrub planting and/or planting maintenance and/or herbaceous planting to establish native vegetation on Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP) easements throughout several counties in Western Washington State. Those counties include Clark, Skagit, Snohomish, Thurston, and Pacific. There are approximately (10) ten easements ranging in size from 1.5 to 75 acres. Site preparation may consist of one or more of the following treatments: mowing, application of a suitable herbicide, tillage, or spot scalping. Some project sites may require application of a suitable pre-emergent herbicide. Planting maintenance may consist of one or more of the following treatments: application of a suitable herbicide, hand slash, weedeating, or mowing with mowing deck or brush hog. Site prep is scheduled to be conducted late July through early October 2006, with planting either fall 2006, early winter 2006, or spring 2007 depending on plant material types. Plant stock will vary by project. Planting maintenance will occur following planting in spring 2007 or summer/fall 2007 and summer/fall 2008. In addition, protective tubing will be placed and secured around the base of each plant. The solicitation will be issued electronically at the Federal Business Opportunities website on or about June 19, 2006. Requests for a hardcopy solicitation must be in writing. Fax your request to Amy Smith at (509) 323-2979 or email at amy.smith2@wa.usda.gov. This solicitation is restricted and has been set-aside for small business concerns. The price range is $250,000-$500,000. In addition to other factors, bids will be evaluated on the basis of advantages and disadvantages to the Government that might result from making more than one award (multiple awards). It is assumed for the purpose of evaluating bids, that $500 would be the administrative cost to the Government for issuing and administering each contract awarded under this solicitation, and individual awards will be for the items or combinations of items that result in the lowest aggregate cost to the Government, including the assumed administrative cost.
