- Description
- The Contractor shall provide all expertise, labor, supervision, services, herbicides, carriers or adjuvants, materials, equipment, tools, supplies, transportation, licenses, permits, worker personal protective equipment (PPE), and incidentals necessary to perform the required work, for which the desired outcome is in strict accordance with the standards in the contract. The Contractor shall perform and accomplish the work in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and ordinances. The project area occurs within and adjacent to a forested area, which includes: stream-side, road-side, trail-side, and forested habitats within a recent timber sale. The target species of Japanese stiltgrass occurs scattered throughout the area. Spot spray Japanese stiltgrass (Microstegium vimineum) located along road and trail sides, streams and within forested areas. The use of spot spraying techniques will be necessary to avoid damage to desirable native species. However, broadcast applications can be made in monocultures of stiltgrass if no damage is caused to desirable native vegetation. Treatment will be for 78 Acres with an Optional Item of 53 Acres. The Contractor and/or whoever will supervise the herbicide treatment must possess a current Indiana commercial pesticide applicators certification and license (category 2) at the time of any herbicide treatments. Most contracts will require work requirements in category 2 (Forest Pest Management), which is applicable for all treatments on the Forest. The Contractor must also possess a current Indiana Commercial Pesticide Business License. Information on Indiana pesticide certification is available at http://www.isco.purdue.edu/. The Contractor, or subcontractor, shall ensure that there is either an Indiana pesticide licensed applicator on-site at all times of treatment or registered technicians that are in direct voice communication by telephone or radio with the certified supervisor. Estimated Start Date is 3 July, 2017 with a Completion Date of 29 September, 2017. A COMPLETE SOLICITATION PACKAGE WILL BE AVAILABLE ON THIS SITE BY APRIL 7, 2017.
