Description

Description of Work- The Jemez Campground Forest Health ? Jemez Falls Campground Stewardship Project is located on the Jemez Ranger District of the Santa Fe National Forest. The project area lies adjacent to State Highway 4, and borders the southern boundary of the Valles Caldera National Preserve. The Project Area encompasses 217 acres surrounding the Jemez Falls Campground, with State Highway 4 and the Preserve on the northern boundary, and the breaks into the East Fork of the Jemez River on the eastern boundary. The project area centers around a popular campground located within dense stands of ponderosa pine that are at high risk of drought-induced bark beetle attack, as well as a risk of wildfire. The primary purpose of the project is to improve stand health by reducing the overall stand density by up to 50%. This thinning will enhance residual tree vigor and thus reduce the chances for ponderosa pine mortality from bark beetles. Treatment of the resulting woody debris and slash will both remove the potential attractant to bark beetles as well as making the residual stand more fire resistant into the future. To accomplish these goals, this project includes several different components: timber removal (commercial thinning), pre-commercial thinning, and slash treatment by decking, chipping or removing. NOTE: This solicitation will not be available electronically. All requests for copies of this solicitation must be requested via email or fax (505-346-3909).
