- Description
- Additional FAQ: Q: Do I need my feller buncher for the logging out item? A: No, a feller buncher is not the right equipment for this job. This will be a brushing job. Whole log chippers are not useful. Some of the common tools will not work on this road brushing contract. Additional Information: Response date 2/9/10 at 2 pm, Pacific Time. No additional maps will be posted but following is additional, pertinent information: There have been several fires in the areas covered by this contract (Basin, Chalk, Indians, Day, and Zaca). Areas where fires have burned contain material that is hardened and therefore harder to cut with a chainsaw than the typical standing live or dead. North coast ridge and central coast ridge roads typically have a 6-foot growth per year (typical of coastal areas) and generally there is old standing dead, hardened, some of which may have fallen into the roadway or on top of new brush growth. Interior fire areas have yearly growth of brush at about 3-feet/year since the fire occurrence. Same scenario with standing dead, hardened material and fallen material. Santa Barbara Ranger District --Entire Buckhorn Road is fire hardened brush material with re-growth from the last fire of 3-6 feet. Mt Pinos Ranger District --Grade Valley has a component of fir with hardened dead fir due to the Day fire. --Other areas mostly brush 3-6 feet tall. Areas outside the recent fire areas are a more solid mass of brush with vines (blackberries, poison oak) and thickened brush nothing more than eight inches in diameter in these stands of brush. Sometimes there is a scattered tree component that would either take a pole saw with an arm (if hand work) and regular chainsaws, not major tree work, mostly brush work. The tallest brush in non-fire areas and on coastal roads is approx. 20 feet tall. The majority of the roads are dirt, very few are paved, less than a ¼ are chip sealed.
