- Description
- Salt Bowns Vegetation Treatment Project 2017 IN APPROXIMATELY 1 DAY, THE SOLICITATION FOR THIS COMMERCIAL SERVICE PROJECT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO VIEW AND PRINT. SCOPE OF WORK The overall purpose of the project is to restore the declining health of forest vegetation due to insect and disease infestations and the long term exclusion of fire; and to reduce the amount of accumulated fuel (vegetation), reducing the future risk of large, severe wildfire. Specifically, there are thee needs identified for this project: 1. Maintain and restore the health of forested stands in response to current insect and disease levels. This can be accomplished by thinning overstocked stands, reducing the basal area of the stands, removing the sick and diseased trees, encouraging growth and vigor of healthy trees, and reintroducing fire into the ecosystem. 2. Enhance and restore habitat for wildlife species of concern in old Douglas-fir forest. This can be accomplished by preserving old Douglas-fir stands by removing smaller, competing trees, and reducing fuels to reduce the risk of losing large trees from wildfire. 3. Reduce the amount of vegetative fuel loading to lower the fire regime condition class. This can be accomplished by removing trees (thinning, harvesting), and by using prescribed fire to lessen the amount and composition of overall vegetation in and around these forest stands. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, equipment, supervision, transportation, supplies (except those designated as Government furnished), and incidentals to perform all work necessary on the areas specified.
