The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Navy through NAVFACSYSCOM Northwest, is seeking to engage the Washington Conservation Corps (WCC) for a program aimed at vegetation management, forestry support, and recreation enhancement. This sole-source contract allows the U.S. Government to leverage the WCC's services, which involve removing invasive plant species and replacing them with native varieties, while also providing educational benefits to participating students. The initiative is significant as it promotes environmental conservation and supports local educational programs, ultimately resulting in cost savings compared to commercial market rates.
