Deadline: January 5, 2026

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Division of Maintenance, Office of Natural Resources Management (ONRM) is the Program Manager of the Vegetation Management Program (VMP). The Division of Maintenance VMP leads Caltrans in approach and implementation of Climate Action for Wildfire Adaptation. While vegetation along state highways has traditionally been managed to ensure visibility and safety of the traveling public, Caltrans has expanded its strategic management to include vegetation management for wildfire ignition reduction and landscape health.

Caltrans is seeking assistance in the development and publishing of multiple tools to include VMP Plans (template, district plans, and statewide plan), new VMP Manual, and ONRM Communications Strategy and tools. Development of the major deliverables will effectively replace the outdated Maintenance Manual, Volume 2 Chapter C-2 and E, as well as memorialize the essential functions, roles, responsibilities and best practices of the VMP Program. The selected firm will need to consider the applicability of Caltrans VMP Guidelines on a county-by-county basis at the highway corridor scale within the linear landscape owned by Caltrans across a wide range of vegetation types within all 58 counties in California.

The estimated duration of this contract will be 5 years.

All questions should be directed to Jennifer Parson, Senior Environmental Planner, (916) 376-1604, jennifer.parson@dgs.ca.gov.
