About this file
This document outlines specifications for various conservation practices to be implemented under a federal contract for Wetland Easement Vegetation Enhancement Services. The contract will involve enhancing approximately 33.3 acres of wetland areas through basal bark treatment, cut-stump treatment, tree injection, or herbicide application of invasive woody vegetation using tracked equipment during winter months. Additional upland areas totaling approximately 3 acres will be treated for invasive autumn olive and replanted with native shrubs and a seed mix of at least six species of native flowering forbs approved by NRCS. The work will also include establishing patches of herbaceous cover among newly planted trees and shrubs, interplanting additional native plants in upland areas, and replanting upland forests with a diverse community of native trees and shrubs providing wildlife food and cover approved in advance by NRCS. The soliciting agency is the Department of Agriculture Under Secretary for Farm Production and Conservation.
