The Bitterroot Front Project area spans roughly 145,000 acres … (show all)

across the Stevensville and Darby Ranger Districts, where dense, overstocked mixed?conifer stands and widespread tree mortality have increased susceptibility to insect outbreaks and extreme wildfire behavior. Following a decade of severe fires, the project aims to reduce wildfire risk to nearby communities and restore forest health through treatments such as thinning, harvesting, mechanical fuel reduction, and prescribed burning. These efforts focus on improving stand vigor, promoting fire?adapted species, reducing hazardous fuels, and enhancing safety and effectiveness for wildfire responders. A secondary objective of the long?term contract is to provide a consistent timber supply for local forest products industries, while contractors complete tasks including unit layout, timber cruising, road work, and timber removal as part of a broader strategy to increase the pace and scale of forest restoration.

Value counts single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling; that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's last annual revenue from its 10-K.
