RE: Fuels Treatment Qualified Pool Retainer Agreements
NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD CONTRACT
On January 20, 2010, the Deschutes County Forester considered proposals for selection of a
qualified pool of providers for Fuels Treatment Services, pursuant to Deschutes County Code
Chapter 2.37.130. Fuels Treatment Services consist of one or more of the following: hand
piling, grapple piling, sheering, slash busting, chainsaw thinning, chipping and removal,
pruning/ladder fuel reduction, mowing, pile burning, lop and scatter, pine needle removal, crush
and masticate, dozer piling, mulching and tub/horizontal grinding. The Forester determined
which of the proposers’ submittals and the particular services they offered represented the best
value to the County. Attached to this Notice on Exhibit A is a summary of the proposers and the
particular services that the Forester has recommended be placed in a “qualified pool” for
selection within the current calendar year to perform such services on various work sites to be
identified by the Forester.
The decision to not select a particular proposer or one or more services for which a proposal
was submitted shall not be construed as County’s determination such proposer(s) were not
“qualified” in a general sense. Rather the decision not to select one or more proposers or
services being proposed were considered not sufficiently competitive or not in the best interest
of the public.
This Notice of Intent to Award Contract is issued pursuant to ORS 279B.135 and Oregon
Administrative Rule (OAR) 137-047-0610. The Board hereby waives application of Deschutes
County Code 2.37.140(c), requiring protests to be filed within three (3) business days.
A copy of this Notice is being provided to each firm or person that submitted a proposal for this
contract. Any firm or person who believes that they are adversely affected or aggrieved may
submit to the Board of County Commissioners of Deschutes County, Oregon, 1300 NW Wall
Street, Suite 200, Bend, Oregon 97701, a written protest within seven (7) days after the
issuance of this Notice of Intent to Award. The seven (7) day protest period will expire at 5:00
PM on Wednesday, February 20, 2010.
Any protest must be in writing and specify any grounds upon which the protest is based. If no
protest is filed within the protest period, this Notice of Intent to Award becomes an Award of
Contract without further action unless, for good cause, this Notice is rescinded by the County
before the expiration of the protest period.
The selected proposers will execute a retainer agreement, provided by the County. The Forester
is hereby authorized to execute such retainer agreements with the proposers (contractors) and
the associated services set forth on Exhibit A. Under the terms of the retainer agreement
contractors’ names will be placed on a list. At such time as the Forester identifies a Work Site
and the need for fuels treatment services for which a contractor has been identified, Forester will
negotiate with a contractor from the list for a personal services contract. As part of the execution
of such contract, the contractor will be required to provide a certificate of insurance.
If you have any questions regarding this Notice of Intent to Award Contract, the selection
methodology or the procedures under which the County is proceeding, please contact Joe
Stutler, County Forester, Deschutes County Road Department, 61150 SE 27th Street, Bend,
Oregon 97702.
Telephone (541) 322-7117.
Sincerely,
Joe Stutler, Forester
