Requests for Proposals

The National Forest Foundation (NFF) and the USDA Forest Service (Forest Service) are working together to protect and restore the Tahoe National Forest through targeted efforts in the NFF’s Tahoe Headwaters Treasured Landscape site. The NFF and the Yuba River Ranger District (YRRD) of the Tahoe National Forest are collaborating on the 3,543 acre Sleighville Project. The Sleighville Project is a fuel reduction and commercial thinning project designed to reduce wildfire risk by thinning over-stocked forests around the rural communities along the North Yuba River corridor, improve forest health and resilience, and generate enhanced stream flow.

The Sleighville Project has been divided into four phases, based on location and treatment method, Phase I – Tractor Based Units, Phase II – Tractor Based Units, Phase III – Cable Based Units, and Phase IV – Helicopter Units. Item 6, reconstruction of all roads in the Sleighville Roads Package, is being advertised as a stand-alone item. Bidders may bid on one or multiple phases and must bid on all items within the phase they are bidding.

Deadline:

Responses should be emailed by February 7, 2025.
