3. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

(a) Description of Work- The Rivbulio IRSC will implement roadside hazard tree abatement treatments, road repair and reconstruction work in response to disaster declaration FEMA-4562-DR. The objective is to reduce roadside fuel loading and to provide safe access for the public road users. Activities to achieve these end results include performing essential maintenance and reconstruction of roads, cutting of fire killed/damaged roadside trees, removal of cut timber, managing roadside slash and fuel accumulation which will help with site preparation for future reforestation efforts along roads and reduce future fire risk.

This contract will secure services to perform necessary hazard tree abatement work along Forest system roads that will include the removal of Forest products that meet utilization standards and associated slash work, Additional services to be procured include standard road maintenance activities, culvert cleaning and replacement, guardrail replacement, and armoring of identified system roads to facilitate the removal of Forest products.

The anticipated operational seasons for road work activities is June 1 – October 15 annually. Ground based hazard tree work is anticipated to be permitted year-round and must comply with required protections for wet season operations and IFPL.

The end result is a road system that has no standing fire killed/damaged trees within striking distance of the road (including the slide and roll area) so that the road can be reopened to public use. The goal is to reduce roadside fuel loading and to provide safe access for road users.

(b) Resulting Contract – Any resultant contract will be a commercial services contract with requirements for timber removal.

(c) Project Location- The Rivbulio Fire Recovery IRSC project is located approximately 16 miles (Memaloose) to 56 miles (Olallie) southeast of Estacada, Oregon. Access to the project area is via State Highway 224 (heading southeast from Estacada) and Forest Road 46; using Forest Service Roads (FSRs) within the Memaloose/Hillockburn, Fish Creek, Bull Complex, and Olallie areas south of State Hwy 224. The total project area is within the Clackamas Ranger District of the Mount Hood National Forest. The proposed project area lies generally within the following township and ranges and FSRs:

June 1 through October 15:

allowable window for stream crossing removal during the dry season.

Stream crossings will be removed before the wet season (generally October 16 to May 31), with erosion and sediment control features incorporated.

June 1 – October 15: allowable window for road maintenance and reconstruction.

Generally, road maintenance and reconstruction activities would occur during the dry season (generally June 1 to October 15) unless the road segment has no hydrologic connection to streams. The addition of gravel (including blading and compacting) may occur to allow for wet season haul.

June 1 – October 15: allowable window for haul on aggregate surface roads.

Haul on aggregate roads is allowed during the dry season. A waiver may be granted to haul during the wet season (generally October 16 to May 31)

July 15 – August 31: allowable window for instream work. Instream work window.

Accumulated precipitation limiting operations.

Ground-based operations and haul on aggregate surface roads will be suspended during wet periods when soil moisture is high and off-trail heavy equipment tracks sink below the soil surface with one or two passes particularly during spring, after heavy or prolonged rain, or in late fall.

Additional measures for clarification:

Ground-based operations would temporarily cease when:

• Precipitation ≥ 0.3” for 3 consecutive days or more.

• Precipitation ≥ 0.6” per 4 hours.

• Precipitation ≥ 1.0” per 24 hours.

• Precipitation ≥2.0” per 72-hours.

• Soil moisture exceeds > 20% volumetric water content (VWC) as measured by the soil scientist or Redbox RAWS.

Ground-based operations may continue after a shutdown if both of the following conditions are met:

• Soil moisture conditions have dried to less than or equal to 20%

(VWC).

Precipitation and soil moisture would be measured according to a running average of the data measured from the appropriate Remote Automated Weather Station (RAWS).

Timeframe Restriction Description

• Primary station: Redbox RAWs

• Alt station: Wanders Peak RAWs

Additional visual indicator factors to include:

• Off-trail rutting >6” for more than 10 feet

• Water is running down road surface.

Temperatures would remain below freezing for at least 6 hours during day-light hours.

Guidelines for when ground-based operations over snow should be suspended (see also the National BMP Core Technical Guide):

• When rain-on-snow softens the snowpack.

• When the temperature is above freezing for 6 or more hours per day and the snow pack becomes soft. When it’s warm and melting.
