Abstract

The purpose of this report is to provide information about various approaches that the Forest Service, BLM, and their partners have used to create large restoration programs using stewardship contracts and agreements. These strategies have allowed for the treatment of large landscapes over long time frames, and have supported local contracting, forest products, and biomass utilization capacity. This report describes and compares four approaches to stewardship contracting: single, large-scale, long-term, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contracts; multiple-award, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contracts; consistent programs of work using multiple contracts; long-term stewardship agreements with nonprofit organizations.
