(v) See Attachment 3 (vi) STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW) 1 Project Title FY 18 Apalachicola NF Triclopyr Site Prep and Release 2 Background This contract is for furnishing all labor, materials, equipment, tools, transportation, supervision, supplies, and perform all work required to treat pine stands overgrown with hardwood trees and woody shrubs that are generally more than 4 feet tall. Treatment will be in areas that are sapling sized longleaf pine plantations, and others are mature pine stands that have become overgrown. Size, density and type of vegetation to be treated may vary from stand to stand. 3 Objective The objective of this contract/order is to treat stands where woody vegetation is competing with longleaf pines. This project will be a major step in the restoration of the longleaf pine ecosystem focusing on vegetation control to ensure the survival and growth and health of longleaf pine ecosystems. 4 Scope of Work Furnish all labor, supplies, tools, transportation, and supervision necessary for herbicide release. The Government will furnish no materials, labor, or equipment unless specifically identified in the Government-Furnished Property Clause. After viewing alternate areas with the Contractor, the Contracting Officer (CO) reserves the right to substitute, at the contract price, the same type and amount of work in other areas similar in topography and conditions within the Ranger District boundaries shown on the maps in lieu of the original areas when it is determined by the Contracting Officer that the original areas or portions thereof are unsuitable or unavailable for performance of the specified work. Equipment movement of more than five (5) miles from the nearest boundary of the original area to the substitute areas will be paid for at rates mutually agreed upon between the Parties. 5 Reporting Requirements Inspection - Work performed under this contract shall be made by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) as the work progresses. These inspections will be performed at such intervals as are necessary to insure compliance with the contract specifications. The contractor will inform the COR once an area is completed so an inspection can be made. Should remedial work be required it shall be done before moving to another area. Method of Measurement - Acreages listed in the bid schedule were determined by traversing the area with GPS equipment. For the purposes of this contract, this is considered actual acreage and not an estimate. Basis of Payment - Payment will be made at the unit bid price for the total number of acres completed and accepted by the COR less the value of excess mixed herbicide or unaccounted herbicide, surfactant, or pattern indicator not applied. The value of Triclopyr 4E is $52.00 per gallon. The value of Spray Pattern Indicator is $38.00 per gallon. 6 Deliverables and Delivery Schedule Contractor-Furnished Items - The contractor will furnish all materials and equipment needed to complete the contract, except as specified. Equipment Requirements a) Herbicide approved handheld spray bottles b) Nurse tank of at least 100 gallons of clean water c) Mixing tank of 10-50 gallons (separate from nurse tank) d) Water for herbicide mixing or clean-up. e) Protective equipment and clothing for crew f) Equipment and supplies for decontamination site g) Hand or power tools at the contractors discretion. This can include: powered brush cutters, brush axes, bush hooks, machetes, hand saws, chainsaws, or any other equipment that will clear brush without damaging pine seedlings. Hack-N-Squirt/Cut Stump Method - This treatment is for pine stands overgrown with hardwood trees and woody shrubs that are generally more than 4 feet tall. Most areas are sapling sized longleaf pine plantations, and others are mature pine stands that have become overgrown. Size, density and type of vegetation to be treated varies widely. All designated areas shall receive both of the following 2-part treatments except those adjacent to private as stated in "Protection Of Private Land And Leave Trees" Treatment 1 - All hardwood and woody shrub vegetation greater than 1 ft. tall, with a root collar diameter up to 3 inches will be cut (In the past, gas powered brush cutters/clearing saws have been most effective). In areas adjacent to motorcycle trails, any brush to be treated that fall onto the trail will be cut, and pulled away from the trail with the stump end facing away from the trail. The cut surface of hardwood trees, shrubs and palmetto between 1 and 3 inches in diameter at the root collar shall be sprayed or brushed with the herbicide solution. Apply herbicide mix to the cambium area (the wood next to the bark) of the stump; do not over apply causing run-off. Stumps will be no higher than 3 inch above ground. Felled trees shall be removed from roads, trails, fences and tortoise burrow entrances. Treatment 2 - Standing hardwood trees and shrubs greater than 3 inches in diameter at the root collar, up to 10 inches at 4.5 ft. shall be frilled using cutting tools. Make cuts around the tree trunk at a convenient height with a hatchet or similar equipment so that the cuts overlap slightly and make a continuous circle around the trunk. Spray 1/2 milliliter of undiluted Triclopyr 4E or 1 milliliter of the diluted solution into the pocket created between the bark and the inner stem/trunk by each cut. Trees are not to be felled. In areas adjacent to roads or motorcycle trails, any trees to be treated that could fall onto the trail will be cut within 3 inches of the ground, and pulled away from the trail with the stump end of the tree facing away from the trail. A chainsaw could be used in place of a hatchet, provided that the saw not cut too deeply into the tree. 7 Applicable Documents and Standards 1. Longleaf Pines are not to be damaged or sprayed. Cut stems shall not be left leaning against or on top of longleaf pines in a manner causing the longleaf stems to bend. Longleaf pines bent over by cut vegetation shall be immediately released. 2.
