- Description
- GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The purpose and intent of this contract is to secure services for pre-commercial tree thinning of 129 acres of young growth timber in of conifer reproduction, approximately 33 to 34 years old, in five overstocked second-growth stands located on the Tongass National Forest; Sitka Ranger District. The Contractor must furnish all labor, equipment, housing, subsistence, supervision, transportation, operating supplies, and incidentals except those items listed as Government-furnished property. The performance period is 43 calendar days. PROJECT LOCATION: Items 1 through 5 are located on the Corner Bay road system on Chichagof Island, on the south side of Tenakee Inlet, approximately 45 air miles north of Sitka, Alaska. No roads connect Sitka with the project area. This project is located on the Sitka Ranger District of the Tongass National Forest in Southeast Alaska, near the town of Tenakee Springs on the northeastern portion of Chichagof Island. Tenakee Springs is a very small and isolated coastal community with limited services and no roads. The town is accessible via the Alaska Marine Highway System and floatplane service from both Juneau and Sitka. There is no direct road connection between Tenakee Springs and the project area. The project area is accessed from the Corner Bay road system, which originates at a log transfer facility (LTF) on the opposite side of Tenakee Inlet from the town, approximately four miles to the southeast. There is a Forest Service dock facility adjacent to the LTF where small boats may be moored. There is also a bulkhead at this location where full-sized vehicles and/or ATVs can be offloaded by barge or landing craft. The majority of the Corner Bay road system is open to both full-sized vehicles and ATV traffic. Because of the uniqueness of Southeast Alaska regarding access, logistics, and service points, it is strongly recommended that prospective Contractors adequately familiarize themselves with the area to help determine mobilization costs, living, and travel expenses.
