AI Contract Overview
The Illinois Department of Natural Resources is soliciting bids for the commercial harvest of approximately 67 acres of mature mixed upland hardwood timber at Hidden Springs State Forest in Shelby County. The primary objectives of this project are to promote oak regeneration, restore forest communities for wildlife conservation, and improve forest health by reducing fuel loading. The harvest includes various species such as white oak, black oak, hickory, and black walnut, totaling approximately 163,200 board feet. The contract term extends 24 months from the date of execution, and the award will be granted to the responsive and responsible bidder who submits the highest overall total price. Qualified vendors must possess a current Illinois Timber Buyer’s license and adhere to strict operational requirements, including pressure-washing equipment to prevent the spread of invasive species and suspending operations during specific firearm deer hunting seasons. Harvesting is permitted only when the ground is dry or frozen, and all activities must comply with Illinois Forestry Best Management Practices. Bidders must submit their proposals electronically via BidBuy, including all required vendor disclosures and certifications. The state maintains the right to inspect equipment and operations at any time to ensure compliance with environmental and safety regulations.
