Description
The Malheur National Forest has a requirement to purchase cattleguards and cattleguard components for Disaster Recovery in the Rail Ridge Fire Area. The Forest will utilize local equipment and personnel to remove and replace the existing damaged cattleguards. This is just a purchase for supplies and delivery of the supplies to the Forest Service compound in John Day, OR. The USFS intends to install 4 complete cattleguard assemblies but also intends to replace only the bases under 3 existing cattleguards on the forest.
• The cattleguards must meet HS-20 load rating according to AASHTO, as verified by a Professional Engineer.
• The cattleguard and components must be designed and stamped by a professional engineer.
• The cattleguard design and shop drawings must be submitted to the government and approved prior to acceptance.
• All components, including bases, must be constructed of metal.
• All metal must be painted “Traffic Yellow.”
• The deck rails must be comprised of a “roll formed rail section”.
The project duration is from May 15, 2026, to June 30, 2026.
