- Description
- This project consists of reducing the density of small diameter vegetation in the 1" to 8" DBH on the Pack Creek Ranch hazardous fuel reduction area. Stubble height of the treated vegetation will be less than 6". Dominant vegetation in the majority of the project area is pinyon pine and Utah juniper, with lesser amounts of oak brush and sagebrush. Project area is in San Juan County on U.S. Forest Service public land. Size of the project area is approximately 630 acres. Vegetation shall be reduced to a mulch material with a minimum of 80% of the woody material less than 1" in diameter and 6" long. The mulch shall be scattered evenly across the surface and not remain in piles deeper than 6" deep. Stumps shall be left with a jagged cut to decrease time of decomposition. All work will be accomplished with a machine mounted, vertical-shaft cutting, thinning and shredding machine containing large (flotation type) lugged rubber tires to reduce impact to the ground, and ride over the remaining stumps and mulched vegetation. All costs to the contractor (such as transportation of equipment and travel by the operator) are to be included in the cost per project. Contractor will only be paid for the actual completion of the project. The Contracting Officer?s Representative (COR) will mark areas to be treated and/or avoided. The boundary of the units will be marked by existing fence lines, or flagged with ribbon. Treated areas may be in the form of small clear cuts, strips, mosaics, or general thinnings. All treatments will be directed by the COR. Any known archaeological sites in the project area will be flagged prior to the start of the mowing operations. These archaeological sites will be avoided. Solicitation package will be approx. be uploaded into FedBizOpps on July 17, 2003.*****
