About this file

This is an addendum to a Request for Competitive Quotes (RFCQ) issued by the Oregon Department of Transportation for tree removal and clear zone work along Interstate 5, Mile Post 52 to 55. The project involves clearing trees and limbs to improve sight distance by trimming and removing marked trees, including work on clear zones for signage, no work zones, and trimming of highway areas. The addendum, issued on October 2, 2026, modifies the original RFCQ specifications and becomes an integral part of the contract documents. Bidders must comply with all requirements outlined in both the original RFCQ and this addendum, with quote submissions due by the deadline posted in OregonBuys. The contracting buyer is Ashley Kallberg, reachable at Ashley.kallberg@odot.oregon.gov or 503-910-5349.

The addendum specifically adds requirements to Exhibit 5 regarding mastication of blackberries and small brush in brushing areas. Contractors are permitted to masticate blackberries and brush but must avoid creating debris piles; any piles that occur must be spread to no more than one inch in height to allow normal maintenance mowing operations. Cut brush and trees remain subject to a three-inch minimum requirement. Critically, the addendum clarifies that there is no on-site or off-site location provided for wood chips or other woody debris, making it the contractor's responsibility to remove all debris from the project site.
