OET (OET-RV) and organised the firewood supply at certain times, including for the first-fruits celebrations.
§ My God, remember me for good.
וּלְקֻרְבַּ֧ן הָעֵצִ֛ים בְּעִתִּ֥ים מְזֻמָּנ֖וֹת וְלַבִּכּוּרִ֑ים
and,for,offering_of the,wood in/on/at/with,times appointed and,for_the,first_fruits
This verse continues the sentence that begins in the previous verse, so here Nehemiah is describing two further things that he caused to stand or made sure happened. He is referring to the promises that the people made in their covenant to bring these contributions to the temple to support the priests and Levites. See how you translated these terms in 10:34 and 10:35. Alternate translation: “I also made sure that the people brought their offerings of wood and of the first crops that grow in their fields at the times when they had promised to bring them”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / aside
זָכְרָה־לִּ֥י אֱלֹהַ֖י לְטוֹבָֽה
remember, to/for=me God_of,my for,good
As in 4:4, here Nehemiah stops addressing the readers of his story and speaks directly to God. You could indicate this by putting this verse in quotation marks. Review the note at 4:4 about asides like this if that would be helpful.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
זָכְרָה־לִּ֥י אֱלֹהַ֖י לְטוֹבָֽה
remember, to/for=me God_of,my for,good
To remember someone for good is an idiom that means to reward someone with good things for the good that they have done.
13:15-31 Nehemiah instituted two additional reforms to restore proper Sabbath observance (13:15-22) and proper marriage practices (13:23-31). These two sections have similar structures: Nehemiah discovered a problem, corrected the problem, and asked God for his blessing.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
