Description

The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service has an upcoming requirement for the completion of a Nutrient Management Plan, Conservation Plan, and Recordkeeping and Nutrient Management Plan Implementation as part of a comprehensive nutrient management plan (CNMP). A CNMP is a grouping of conservation practices and management activities which, when combined into a system, will help ensure that both production and natural resource conservation goals are achieved for animal feeding operations. The Nutrient Management Plan involves developing nutrient budgets (for all sources of nutrients used on the farm) based on crop needs, existing soil nutrient levels, and soil nutrient thresholds. The plan will include appropriate documents and field maps that identify the land base necessary to effectively utilize the manure produced. The Conservation Plan includes the development of conservation and management practices required to minimize the movement of nutrients on the landscape and conserve the nutrient value for crop production. This includes the planning and design of practices that address tillage and crop rotation systems, erosion and runoff control and conservation buffers. Record-keeping and Nutrient Management Plan Implementation includes the collection of soil/manure samples, evaluating planned crop nutrient needs, calculating appropriate manure application rates, calibrating equipment and filing appropriate records for documentation. Place of performance will be in various counties within South Dakota. NAICS code is 541620. The Request for Proposal will be available on or about June 15, 2004. A pre-proposal site visit will be held on June 24, 2004. Further information on the site visit will be provided in the solicitation. Successful proposals may result in multiple awards. Resulting contract or contracts will be of an Indefinite Delivery – Indefinite Quantity type consisting of a base year and four option years. Task orders placed against the contract are subject to negotiations according to the terms and conditions contained therein, and under the guidelines provided in FAR Part 15. NOTE: THIS NOTICE WAS NOT POSTED TO WWW.FEDBIZOPPS.GOV ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (27-APR-2004); HOWEVER, IT DID APPEAR IN THE FEDBIZOPPS FTP FEED ON THIS DATE.
