Inyo National Forest (INF) Capture and Removal of 450 Wild Horses.

The Inyo National Forest is seeking a contractor to capture and remove 450 wild horses from the Montgomery Pass WHT area. The contractor will be responsible for conducting a wild horse drive-trap gather, which includes setting up traps, capturing the horses, and removing them from the area. The contractor will also be required to provide a detailed proposal outlining their technical approach, including their methodology for capturing the horses and their plan for handling and caring for the horses during the removal process. Some key points to consider include: • The contractor will need to use the provided maps to guide their response and identify potential trap sites. • The contractor will need to ensure that the horses are held overnight prior to being shipped to the holding facility, unless approved by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR). • The contractor will be permitted to camp at the temporary corral site, but recreational access to the area will be restricted during the gathering process. • The contractor will need to ensure that the horses are received at the holding facility between 6:00 am and 7:00 pm PST, seven days a week.
