In the absence of the Contractor, the authorized representative will take action as required to keep the job in progress under the terms of the contract.

DIVISION 200-TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

210-MOWING AND TRIMMING REQUIREMENTS: Mowing shall consist of cutting vegetation to a height of not more than three (3) inches from the ground, ensuring that no strips of uncut vegetation remain.

211-Mowing equipment must be operated in a manner that will prevent tractor wheels or mower from tearing out turf on turns. Mowing will not be permitted when ground is so wet as to cause wheel rutting.

212-Trimming shall consist of cutting vegetation to a height of not more three (3) inches around buildings, signs, fence posts, other posts, trees, shrubs, culverts, walks, roads and any other manmade object that protrudes above the ground line to such height as to prevent passage of larger mowing equipment over them without damage to the equipment or object.

Work in these areas shall be accomplished in a manner that will preserve and encourage the growth of grasses, and chopping vegetation at or below ground level will not be permitted.

Mowing work is not complete until trimming around buildings, site furnishings, signs, posts, fences and other facilities is complete. All trimming will take place at the time of mowing.

213- Road banks and parking spurs will be mowed from edge of road to toe of fill and top of cut. Fences adjacent to hardened areas, such as paved or gravel roads, parking areas and walkways, will be mowed from edge of hardened area to five feet behind the widest point of fence. Contractor shall mow ditch lines through the bottom of ditches. Contractor shall mow and trim road-side approaches to areas within 1,000 feet of entrance signs.

214- Contractor shall remove the cut grass from all roads, sidewalks, buildings, paths, parking areas, and all camping units including under tables. Ground maintenance shall include keeping areas free of trash and/or litter. Trash and litter may be placed in dumpsters located in the campgrounds. Fallen limbs and loose rocks will be picked up and scattered in wooded areas at least 50 feet from disturbed sites or removed off-site.

215- The Contractor shall be responsible for damage caused by mowing/trimming activities to buildings, picnic tables, camper hookups, fireplaces, drinking fountains, signs, guard posts, hitching posts, rails, trees, shrubs, culverts, vehicles, private property and other natural and man-made features within the areas. Damaged items shall be replaced at Contractor’s expense.

220-CONTRACT PERFORMANCE

221-Contractor will be allowed to perform work five (5) days a week exclusive of Saturdays and Sundays. Also excluded from mowing days are Fridays and Mondays of holiday weekends (Memorial Day, Labor Day and Independence Day). Depending on weather, this stipulation could change; however, changes must be approved by the Forest Service Contracting Officers Representative (COR) in advance.

222-Mowing shall be performed during the times specified in above schedule unless changes are made by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). The contractor shall notify the COR if issues arise that will prevent adherence to the schedule.

230-USE OF EQUIPMENT

231-All equipment proposed for use in performance of the work shall be of the size, type, and in such condition to properly pursue the requirements of the contract. All mowers and trimmers will be equipped with safety guards and spark arrestors. If at any time during the course of this contract any equipment is deemed unsatisfactory, the Contracting Officer may order removal and may require a satisfactory replacement at Contractor’s expense.

240-QUALITY ASSURANCE PLAN AND GOVERNMENT REMEDIES

241-The government will periodically evaluate the contractor’s performance by appointing a Contracting Officers Representative (COR) to monitor performance to ensure services are received. The government representative will evaluate the contractor’s performance through inspections of the contractor’s work and receipt of complaints. If the Government inspections indicate that work is not performed in accordance with contract specifications, the COR will immediately notify the Contractor in writing and order rework and improvement in the quality of work. Failure to conform to specifications may result in decreased payment or may be grounds for contract termination in accordance with FAR 52.212-4(m).
