The City of Corvallis issued a Request for Bids (RFB) for the 2020/2021 Cable Timber Harvest, which involved harvesting designated and marked merchantable timber in four stands of approximately 81 acres in the Corvallis Forest and transporting it to City-designated mills. The operation was to be primarily cable yarding, operated from fall 2020 to winter 2020. However, all bids were rejected, and the contract was cancelled. The City plans to re-advertise the work in the future. Key aspects of the contract include:
• The work consists of harvesting and transporting timber
• The operation is primarily cable yarding
• The contract was cancelled due to the City's decision to re-issue a new solicitation at a later time
• Companies that participated in the procurement are appreciated, and the City expects to re-advertise the work in the future
