Western Joshua Tree Mitigation and Relocation Services

The contract is for the survey, documentation, and relocation of up to 83 western Joshua trees in accordance with the Western Joshua Tree Conservation Act and California Department of Fish and Wildlife incidental take permit requirements, ensuring regulatory compliance during development activities in Adelanto, California. The work involves identifying protected trees, assessing their condition and viability for relocation, and executing a detailed relocation plan designed to maximize survival rates while meeting all state-mandated conservation protocols. All activities must follow established scientific and procedural guidelines to mitigate impacts on this protected species. This subcontract, classified under NAICS code 541620 for environmental consulting services, is issued by the City of Adelanto as part of broader land development or infrastructure efforts requiring environmental mitigation. The project is tied to a specific site in Adelanto, with performance tied to regulatory deadlines and permitting obligations. The contractor is expected to provide comprehensive documentation throughout the process, including pre-relocation surveys, transplant logs, and post-relocation monitoring reports to demonstrate adherence to conservation standards and permit conditions. Success is measured not only by the physical relocation of the trees but also by long-term ecological outcomes and regulatory approval of all fieldwork.
