This Statement of Work (SOW) outlines a contract by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Idaho to advance its Abandoned Mine Lands (AML) Program. The purpose is to utilize advanced remote sensing technologies, such as high-resolution LiDAR, multispectral data, and machine-learning feature extraction, to digitally inventory, spatially document, field validate, and risk-rank AML features across approximately 12 million acres of BLM-managed land in Idaho. The project aims to modernize data for an estimated 14,000 to 15,000 AML features—including shafts, adits, and tailings—ensuring alignment with national BLM data standards and the Abandoned Mine Site Cleanup Module (AMSCM) schema. The contractor’s core responsibilities span four primary tasks: contract administration, project planning and document review (including testing sample inventories in Silver Valley and Silver City), conducting the comprehensive digital inventory, and developing a prioritized fieldwork plan for high-risk areas. Additionally, three optional tasks cover acquiring higher-resolution imagery, performing physical ground-truthing, and drafting a final report to serve as a repeatable model for other federal agencies. The contractor must provide all necessary labor and equipment, perform monthly data transfers, and complete all work by the period of performance end date of April 3, 2028. All generated data and derivative products will remain the sole property of the BLM.
