A0001 - This Amendment is to add the Question and Answers(Attachment 7) as well as the Site Visit Sign in Sheet(Attachment 8) for the Subject line Project.  

Project Summary:

The White River National Forest may issue a Solicitation for East Beaver Yellow Jacket Road Work (Forest Road 250.2) in FY2026.

This solicitation should be issued no later than March of 2026.

The work anticipated under any contract resulting from the solicitation will be started as soon as conditions on-the-ground are favorable for the prosecution of the work next spring (estimate Late June starting date).
