The fire extinguisher shall have a current annual inspection tag and the annual maintenance tag in regards to a 6 year annual inspection and every 12 years regarding a hydro test on all dry powder, metal fire extinguishers.

Shovel US Forest Service-qualified spark arrester on all naturally aspirated engines All factory guards shall be in place and in functional condition (i.e. engine compartment) Radiator protection Seat belts Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Contractor shall be responsible for ensuring all personnel have and utilize Personal Protective Equipment as prescribed in this BPA. Contractor shall be responsible for ensuring the Personal Protective Equipment is operable and maintained in good repair throughout the duration of any project.

CONTRACTOR SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT ALL PERSONNAL ARRIVE WITH THE FOLLOWING PPE:

Boots: All personnel shall have heavy-duty, leather, laced boots with melt resistant soles and measure a minimum of 8” from the bottom of the heel to the top of the upper.

Hard Hat: Hardhat meeting NFPA Standard 1977 is required Gloves: One pair of heavy-duty leather per person Eye Protection: One pair (meets standards ANSI Z87, latest edition) Hearing Protection: Use hearing protection whenever sound levels exceed 85 dB. Earphones (headset) required with radio shall have built-in hearing protection.

Flame Resistant Clothing: (Shirt and Pants). A minimum of one full set of flame resistant shirt and pants. All flame resistant clothing must be certified to NFPA 1977 standards.

Blade type shall be an angle with Hydraulic Tilt (blade with angle and tilt with hydraulics) or 6-way Hydraulic (the 6-way blade or PAT (Power-Angle-Tilt) will hydraulically raise blade up or down, angle the blade to the right or left and also raise or lower the outside corners of the blade).

Machines must meet state and federal safety regulations.

In addition to above, dozers shall have:

Factory installed Roll Over Protection Structures (ROPS) and Falling Object Protective Structures (FOPS) meeting the standards set forth by OSHA for Forestry work for the year that the machine was constructed is required. At no time will a machine that does not have a factory FOPS/ROPS system be hired.

Operator Protection shall meet all applicable Federal and State (the State where equipment is registered) logging safety standards (per OSHA, 29 CFR 1910.266) and must have operator protection, such as a Forestry cab package with wire mesh or safety glazing that provides equivalent protection. The rear portion of the cab shall be fully enclosed with open mesh material or heavy Polycarbonate materials capable of withstanding a broken winch line or poking hazards, with openings as such size as to reject the entrance of an object larger than 2 inches in diameter. The covering if installed, shall be affixed to the structural members so that ample clearance will be provided between the screen and the back of the operator and shall provide maximum rearward visibility. If using open mesh, it shall extend forward from the rear corners of the cab sides as far as possible; or at a minimum at least even with the operators chest. If the tank, as mounted, provides equivalent guarding for the operator, then no additional mesh or window glazing is needed. Polycarbonate windows are not “glass” but may be acceptable as a standalone window guard. Any cab meeting ISO 8084 or SAE J1084 fulfills this requirement.

EXCAVATORS:

Type 4, 60-80 HP rating Type 3, 81-110 P rating Type 2, 111-155 HP rating Type 1, 156+ HP rating A fire extinguisher, multi-purpose 2A 10BC that is securely mounted to the vehicle and accessible by the operator.

All machines that use attachments that have potential for chain shot or cutting tooth damage to the operator area must have protective glazing (Polycarbonate) to protect the operator. Excavators must have protective screen or bars over the front of the cab acting as a deflector of brush and branches.

Hydraulic thumb or clamshell.

Machines must meet state and federal safety regulations.

TRANSPORTATION

The Contractor is responsible for transporting the dozer, excavator, skidgens, grader, backhoe, etc. to and from the project. Transports shall have current Department of Transportation (DOT) certification and be of sufficient and legal weight rating to transport the equipment.

Operators should expect to drive on secondary roads with grades of up to 15 percent, with close radius switchbacks and road surfaces of natural material. Truck and trailer shall be capable of working on secondary Forest/Range roads with adequate tractor horsepower and trailer clearance to excel in this environment. Operators may haul dozers, road graders excavators and logging equipment while under hire and must understand load securement and tractor-trailer limitations.
