The research that has, over the past years, been conducted at the Glen Dale Research facility will soon be moved to the South Farm. Woody plant material will be planted in north to south rows in an enclosed area for evaluation. Water and electricity is available to the irregular shaped site that measures 310.896 x 265.7856 x 124.968 x 212.7504 meters(1,020 x 872 x 410 x 698 feet). The site is sloped from west to east. There is no current irrigation or plant material on the site. Requirements: The Arboretum requires an irrigation contractor to furnish and install an automatic drip irrigation system that has been designed for the South Farm research plot.

A manual valve from the main line to the irrigation system shall be provided. The contractor shall install all lateral lines and headers for drip irrigation. The government will install a new water main and electricity to the site. Water will be delivered to the research plot from a 8 inch PVC main line that is currently connected to a backflow preventer. A prebid site visit is tentatively scheduled for February 20,2002. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 36.204 the magnitude is between $25,000 and $100,000.
