- Description
- The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Alaska Region, has the need for a wildland fire risk assessment for Alaska National Wildlife Refuge. The Service would like to identify wildfire risks to people, their communities and other resource values within and adjacent to Refuge land in Alaska by conducting a landscape level wildfire risk assessments on Alaska wildlife refuges that would include communities, private property, cultural resources and Refuge infrastructure. A wildfire risk assessment would aid in planning and implementing suppression actions, managing wildland fires for resource benefits and planning hazard reduction activities within or adjacent to refuge land. Contractor would develop a spatial representation of factors that influence the probability and consequences of wildfire within Alaska Wildlife Refuges. This spatial probability and consequence rating for Refuges from wildland fire will be derived from analyzing three major components: Ignition Probability, Fire Behavior and Suppression Response Capability. The final rating will incorporate values that are significant within Alaska Refuges: Ecosystem Integrity, Wildland Urban Interface/Intermix, Native Allotments and Cultural and Subsistence Resources and Air Quality. Individual ratings for each raster cell will be based on existing biophysical databases and the application of sub models (e.g. rate of fire spread calculated using the Canadian Fire Behavior Prediction System and spatial fuel inventory data). The overall rating level for the probability or consequences of wildland fire is calculated as a weighted sum of all its components. Services are detailed in Section C of the solicitation. This contract will be for one firm year and two option years for a total performance of three years. All contractor's must be registered on the Central Contractor Registration in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulations subpart 4.11.
