- THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES. THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE ONLY. The Department of Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Columbia-Pacific Northwest Region has a requirement to provide professional vegetation restoration and invasive species management services to restore and enhance fish, riparian and upland habitat on the Yakima River and tributaries in Kittitas and Yakima Counties, Washington.

Reclamation�s approach to control noxious weeds, invasive plants, and pests involves multiple methods: biological, chemical, and cultural controls. Currently, Reclamation has neither the personnel nor the equipment to successfully treat invasive species on these undeveloped lands. Reclamation cannot provide personnel or equipment to complete the requirement. Therefore, the awarded contractor(s) shall provide all management, supervision, labor, supplies, and equipment. The contractor(s) personnel shall have expertise, qualifications, and experience in accordance with sound, safe, and efficient management practices which conform to the performance work statement. Pursuant to Part 12 and Part 13 of the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), Reclamation intends to issue a written Request for Quotation (RFQ) on or about 1 October 2021. The solicitation will be issued using North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 561730, Landscaping Services, with a Small Business Size Standard of $8.0 million.

Reclamation intends to award one (1) firm-fixed price purchase order. The initial period of performance (base year) is one (1) year, with four (4), one-year option periods. Option periods shall be exercised at Reclamation�s discretion. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES. A solicitation will be issued at a later date. Interested persons may identify their interest and e-mail a capability statement and relevant history, along with a DUNS number, to Contract Specialists, Terry Mest (tmest@usbr.gov) and Gwen Boyle (gboyle@usbr.gov). Responses must be received by 14 September 2021 at 1400 MDT to be considered by Reclamation. A determination by Reclamation not to compete this proposed acquisition, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of Reclamation. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of market research and will not be returned. This sources sought notice shall not be construed as a commitment by Reclamation nor will Reclamation pay for any information provided. This opportunity will be posted on SAM.gov.
