The main objective of the project is to remove heavy logging slash, natural dead and down, and ladder fuels within 1 or 2 chains (1 chain = 66 feet) of the designated saw lines and dug hand line as designated on the attached maps. The result will be reduced fire intensity and probability of ignition along the control lines and will facilitate holding efforts during prescribed fire operations. These treatments will reduce the potential for torching, crowning, and spotting during prescribed fire operations. The project areas are located North of Cotopaxi, CO off County Road 2 and off Firebox Road. Details are included in the Statement of Work, maps, and Wage Determination attached to this RFQ. A site visit is scheduled for Tuesday June 25, 2024. Offerors are STRONGLY encouraged to attend the site visit. The site visit inspection tour will meet at the Royal Gorge Field Office at 9:00 A.M (3028 East Main Street, Canon City, CO 81212). Please RSVP to Glenda Torres if you plan on attending the tour g1torres@blm.gov or at 719-429-1707. This contact information is for the site visit ONLY, do not contact Ms. Torres with questions, send all questions to the contact listed below. *Special Note: These areas have been recently logged. Google Earth Imagery, NAIP imagery and other sources of imagery were captured prior to the completion of the logging efforts. Tree densities shown in the imagery may be vastly different in this imagery than actual conditions on the ground. Access into this treatment area requires entry through a locked gate, so the pre-bid tour would be the best time to see the treatment areas. * We are requesting input from vendors about the best way to structure pricing for this order. Pricing will be firm fixed price: we would like to know if it would be most beneficial to both parties if 'Per Acre' or 'Per Chain' or 'Per Mile' or some other method is used. (Pricing can not be on a Per Day rate or any form of cost reimbursement (for example Time and Materials, or 'Cost Plus' methods)). We encourage interested vendors to attend the site visit so you can see the conditions on the ground and participate in this decision process. Please submit pricing structure suggestions by July 1, 2024. After the site visit we will consider the pricing input from vendors and make a determination about what method to use and will publish that information as an amendment to the RFQ on SAM on approximately July 3, 2024. This solicitation is being issued as a total small business set-aside. The NAICS associated with this solicitation is 115310 Support Activities for Forestry, Fuels Management Services, which has a small business size standard of $34M.

See attached maps. Waugh Mountain 28 acres, Stoney Face 68 acres. Q4. How many acres does the project come out to? A4. Total 96 acres, see above Q5. Project Scope Clarification: We aim to fully understand the exact scope of work, including any potential challenges or specific requirements that are crucial for successful execution. Are there any particular areas within the project scope that require special attention or consideration? A5. Items were addressed in the SOW or in the questions included here. Q6.

One consideration that was discussed on the site tour was the elevation of the projects and timing of work to beat snow in the fall and if necessary, re-entry in the spring. Typical conditions in this area are snowfall begins late October-early November, and snow melt in the spring would occur mid-late April. Q8. Is it possible to extend the period of performance this work needs to be completed within? A8. Yes. Per the discussion above the period of performance end date is extended to September 30, 2025.
