Montezuma NWR is in the process of restoring its Dry Marsh and needs a Long Front Excavator to accomplish this project. The refuge would like to convert its existing model year 2004 John Deere 230C to a ?Long Front? through the purchase and installation of a 60 - OR a 55 foot, John Deere stick/boom. The existing excavator has a reach of 34 feet. The installation of a long front would provide a reach of 60 feet which will greatly facilitate wetland restoration work at the refuge. This would also require the bucket and pins, as well as any associated hydraulic lines and hoses, and additional tubes and line if required. The contractor is to pick up and return the John Deere 230C from its current location at 3395 U.S. Route 20 in Seneca Falls, NY. The government?s expectation is that this additional equipment must be a John Deere make, although it will consider other customized solutions if the requirement can be met. Certain parts such as the existing bucket and coupler could be considered for trade in value. Contractor?s offer shall include cost of labor and transportation of kit and machine from the refuge to point of installation, and returning to refuge. Potential offerors are invited to examine the current machine to ascertain possible solutions. To arrange for that visit, please contact Mr. Bill Stewart at (315) 568-5987, ext 224.
