What types of construction projects does the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest typically solicit?

The forest frequently issues solicitations for heavy civil construction, including forest road grading, culvert installation, bridge maintenance, and parking lot improvements at recreational sites.

Are there specific set-asides for local contractors in this region?

The Forest Service often utilizes Total Small Business set-asides for forestry-related work, such as timber cruising, tree planting, and hazardous fuels reduction, to encourage participation from regional vendors.
