Description of Work: The objectives of this project are to reduce the risks of hazardous fuels that have fallen across or remain standing along important access routes within the 2020 fire-affected road system so that access to and through the burned area can be restored. Activities include performing mitigation of risk along roads from fire killed/damaged trees, reduction of roadside fuel accumulation and essential maintenance and reconstruction of roads. The following work activities shall be required. The work shall be broken out as Mandatory and Optional work in the solicitation. Cut and remove fire killed trees within 100 feet of roads (approximately 190 acres designated as Mandatory and 227 acres Optional). Hazard trees to be cut are Designated by Prescription. Fall and leave non-commercial hazard trees within Special Measure Areas (SMAs). SMAs may include Riparian Reserves, cultural resource areas, wildlife habitat protection areas or other areas that requires special protections. This work is located within 100 feet of the road. SMAs do not overlap acres that require the cutting and removal of fire killed trees. Approximately 454 acres are designated as Mandatory and 154 acres Optional. Within unit polygons, fall and leave hazard trees that can strike the road outside of the 100-foot fuels removal area (approximately 30 acres designated as Mandatory and 11 acres Optional). Perform small fuels treatment within 30 feet of roads (approximately 272 acres designated as Mandatory and 150 acres Optional). Fuel to be treated includes existing downed or cut trees less than 16-inch DBH that do not meet the fuel loading standard. Material can be removed using a variety of methods. Piling of fuels for burning is not allowed. Perform road reconstruction during the dry season (May 15-October 15). Mandatory construction work includes road reconditioning (46 miles), 46 culvert replacements with sizes that vary from 24 to 60-inch culvert, approximately 3,900 SF of reinforced soil slope, and placement of approximately 16,500 CY of sub-base and 11,000 CY surface course aggregate. Forest Service roads: 2207000, 2209000, 2209201, 2223000, 2225000 are planned for treatment. The Government’s estimate for the Mandatory reconstruction work is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. Optional construction work includes road reconditioning (31 miles), 24 culvert replacements with sizes that vary from 24 to 48-inch culvert and placement of approximately 17,000 CY of subbase and 11,000 CY of surface course aggregate. Forest Service roads: 2207214, 2223520, 2225450, 2225458, 2225461, 4695000, 4695110, 4695120, 4695130, 4695132, 4695133, 4696701 are planned for treatment. The Government’s estimate for the Optional reconstruction work is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. **Placement of aggregate as approved by a qualified engineering COR is necessary for conditional road use during the wet weather season (October 16-May 14). Subbase would be placed prior to operations and surface course after work is completed. All aggregate shall be furnished by the government and is located in the McCoy Pit (44.69266N, 122.03350W on 2233-605).

Description of Work: The objectives of this project are to reduce the risks of hazardous fuels that have fallen across or remain standing along important access routes within the 2020 fire-affected road system so that access to and through the burned area can be restored. Activities include performing mitigation of risk along roads from fire killed/damaged trees, reduction of roadside fuel accumulation and essential maintenance and reconstruction of roads. The following work activities shall be required. The work shall be broken out as Mandatory and Optional work in the solicitation. Cut and remove fire killed trees within 100 feet of roads (approximately 190 acres designated as Mandatory and 227 acres Optional). Hazard trees to be cut are Designated by Prescription. Fall and leave non-commercial hazard trees within Special Measure Areas (SMAs). SMAs may include Riparian Reserves, cultural resource areas, wildlife habitat protection areas or other areas that requires special protections. This work is located within 100 feet of the road. SMAs do not overlap acres that require the cutting and removal of fire killed trees. Approximately 454 acres are designated as Mandatory and 154 acres Optional. Within unit polygons, fall and leave hazard trees that can strike the road outside of the 100-foot fuels removal area (approximately 30 acres designated as Mandatory and 11 acres Optional). Perform small fuels treatment within 30 feet of roads (approximately 272 acres designated as Mandatory and 150 acres Optional). Fuel to be treated includes existing downed or cut trees less than 16-inch DBH that do not meet the fuel loading standard. Material can be removed using a variety of methods. Piling of fuels for burning is not allowed. Perform road reconstruction during the dry season (May 15-October 15). Mandatory construction work includes road reconditioning (46 miles), 46 culvert replacements with sizes that vary from 24 to 60-inch culvert, approximately 3,900 SF of reinforced soil slope, and placement of approximately 16,500 CY of sub-base and 11,000 CY surface course aggregate. Forest Service roads: 2207000, 2209000, 2209201, 2223000, 2225000 are planned for treatment. The Government’s estimate for the Mandatory reconstruction work is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. Optional construction work includes road reconditioning (31 miles), 24 culvert replacements with sizes that vary from 24 to 48-inch culvert and placement of approximately 17,000 CY of subbase and 11,000 CY of surface course aggregate. Forest Service roads: 2207214, 2223520, 2225450, 2225458, 2225461, 4695000, 4695110, 4695120, 4695130, 4695132, 4695133, 4696701 are planned for treatment. The Government’s estimate for the Optional reconstruction work is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. **Placement of aggregate as approved by a qualified engineering COR is necessary for conditional road use during the wet weather season (October 16-May 14). Subbase would be placed prior to operations and surface course after work is completed. All aggregate shall be furnished by the government and is located in the McCoy Pit (44.69266N, 122.03350W on 2233-605).

Activities include performing mitigation of risk along roads from fire killed/damaged trees, reduction of roadside fuel accumulation and essential maintenance and reconstruction of roads. This will be done by accomplishing the following: • Cut and remove fire killed timber within 100 feet of roads from the Contract Area. Hazard trees to be cut are Designated by Prescription. Mechanized equipment shall operate on existing road prisms only (bottom of ditch to base of outside fill slope). • Fall hazard trees within Special Measure Areas (SMAs). SMAs may include Riparian Reserves, cultural resource areas, wildlife habitat protection areas or other areas that requires special protections such as the Opal Creek Scenic Recreation Area. This work is located within 100 feet of the road. SMAs do not overlap acres that require the cutting and removal of fire killed trees. • Within unit boundaries, fall and leave hazard trees that can strike the road outside of the 100-foot fuels removal area. • Perform small fuels treatment within 30 feet of roads. • Perform road reconstruction within the Contract Area. • Perform pre-haul, during-haul and post-haul road maintenance on designated roads within the Contract Area. • Yard and deliver fish logs to specified deck locations. • Fall and leave individual hazard trees that are outside of unit boundary but within striking distance of the road. Supplemental NEPA: The Willamette National Forest staff is currently working on a Supplemental Environmental Assessment (EA) to reduce risks to forest workers; the anticipated decision date in Spring 2025. The proposed action change would allow off-road ground-based equipment operations to implement the remaining work of the 2020 Fire Affected Road System Risk Reduction Project on approximately 950 total acres within the previously authorized treatment area of the Beachie Creek and Lionshead Fire. If approved, equipment would be authorized to operate on flatter ground (generally less than 30% slope) where the direction a tree falls is less predictable or controlled and the impacts to soil resources are limited and consistent with Forest Plan standards. Approximately 135 acres may be available for off-road, ground-based equipment use in Phase 3 of the BCLH IRSC. If a final decision is made for the Supplemental EA during the solicitation period, an amendment shall be issued to allow equipment operation outside the road prism subject to specific technical requirements. In no instance would an amendment of this type be executed without approval of the Supplemental EA. Estimated Timber Volume and Species composition is as follows: Forest product volume estimates for the cut and removal of fire killed trees is provided below. Volume quantities are made available with the understanding that values shown are Forest Service estimates and are not guaranteed. Interested Contractors are urged to examine the individual contract areas and make their own estimates.

A shapefile is a simple, nontopological format for storing geometric location and attributes information of geographic features. GIS (Geographic Information System) software is required to open and view these files. Period of Performance: The effective period of this contract is from date of award through 10/15/2029. Staggered deadlines apply to the Mandatory and Optional work. Fish logs shall be delivered to the designated deck locations not later than 10/15/2026. After careful consideration, it was determined that no operations shall occur between October 16 – May 14 except as detailed for Unit BC-4. See Section F of the solicitation for all completion deadlines and timing restrictions. Scope of Contract: The objectives of this project are to reduce the risks of hazardous fuels that have fallen across or remain standing along important access routes of the 2020 fire-affected road system so that access to and through the burned area can be restored. Fire severity varied across the treatment areas; burn severity maps and tables are included for planning purposes. Activities include performing mitigation of risk along roads from fire killed/damaged trees, reduction of roadside fuel accumulation and essential maintenance and reconstruction of roads. This will be done by accomplishing the following: • Cut and remove fire killed timber within 100 feet of roads from the Contract Area. Hazard trees to be cut are Designated by Prescription. Mechanized equipment shall operate on existing road prisms only (bottom of ditch to base of outside fill slope). • Fall hazard trees within Special Measure Areas (SMAs). SMAs may include Riparian Reserves, cultural resource areas, wildlife habitat protection areas or other areas that requires special protections such as the Opal Creek Scenic Recreation Area. This work is located within 100 feet of the road. SMAs do not overlap acres that require the cutting and removal of fire killed trees. • Within unit boundaries, fall and leave hazard trees that can strike the road outside of the 100-foot fuels removal area. • Perform small fuels treatment within 30 feet of roads. • Perform road reconstruction within the Contract Area. • Perform pre-haul, during-haul and post-haul road maintenance on designated roads within the Contract Area. • Yard and deliver fish logs to specified deck locations. • Fall and leave individual hazard trees that are outside of unit boundary but within striking distance of the road. Supplemental NEPA: The Willamette National Forest staff is currently working on a Supplemental Environmental Assessment (EA) to reduce risks to forest workers; the anticipated decision date in Spring 2025. The proposed action change would allow off-road ground-based equipment operations to implement the remaining work of the 2020 Fire Affected Road System Risk Reduction Project on approximately 950 total acres within the previously authorized treatment area of the Beachie Creek and Lionshead Fire. If approved, equipment would be authorized to operate on flatter ground (generally less than 30% slope) where the direction a tree falls is less predictable or controlled and the impacts to soil resources are limited and consistent with Forest Plan standards. Approximately 135 acres may be available for off-road, ground-based equipment use in Phase 3 of the BCLH IRSC. If a final decision is made for the Supplemental EA during the solicitation period, an amendment shall be issued to allow equipment operation outside the road prism subject to specific technical requirements. In no instance would an amendment of this type be executed without approval of the Supplemental EA. Estimated Timber Volume and Species composition is as follows: Forest product volume estimates for the cut and removal of fire killed trees is provided below. Volume quantities are made available with the understanding that values shown are Forest Service estimates and are not guaranteed. Interested Contractors are urged to examine the individual contract areas and make their own estimates.
