The purpose of this request for proposals is to secure a complete set of services to perform 568 acres of treatment of non-sawtimber and associated activities of cutting ponderosa pine trees 5.0 -8.9 inches dbh, removing merchantable material from the national forest, and treat slash.

This project will also reduce fire danger by reducing the tree density and fuel loading; increase the plant and animal diversity by increasing the amount of area in openings; to maintain current and promote future old growth pine and oak trees by reducing competition around existing old growth trees and oaks; and road maintenance and erosion control activities necessary for soil and water resource protection.
