- Description
- Description: The intent of this solicitation is to provide services, equipment, and labor necessary for maintaining or restoring animal populations that need meadow habitat on the Central Coast Ranger District - Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. The primary focus of treatments is controlling unwanted vegetation in or adjacent to meadows. Unwanted vegetation includes but is not limited to non-native grasses, fern, blackberry, shrubs, and small trees. Portions of some meadows are steep and will require good traction to complete treatments. Treatment methods vary depending on type of vegetation to be removed and the ability to access sites with machinery. Treatment methods can include machine mowing, machine mulching, and hand work. Machine mowing is generally used where machinery has access and the unwanted vegetation can be treated with a mower (grass and small shrubs, blackberry, trees, etc.). Mulching is used where machinery has access and unwanted vegetation is too large for mowing. Hand work with chainsaws, weed-eaters, etc. is used where machinery cannot access areas that need treatment. The amount of effort needed to control unwanted vegetation varies by site. For this solicitation the Government expects 326 acres of tractor mowing, 27 acres of mowing with tracks required on equipment, and 28 acres of hand work. Solicitation will be available for download from FedBizOpps website at http://www.fbo.gov on or about April 11, 2012. Estimated start work date is May 21, 2012. Note: prospective awardee shall be registered in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) data base prior to award. Information on registration may be obtained via the internet at: http://www.ccr.gov or by calling 1-888-227-2423.
