PROJECT LOCATION

A map of complex locations has been provided in the contracting documents and sites are generally locatable through online mapping applications. Approximate GPS coordinates of each complex along with aerial images inticating building locations within each compound have also been provided in the Building Locations document. Some sites require travel on National Forest roads which can be infeasible in the winter depending on conditions. Some NF routes may also be in use for log haul and as such, logging truck traffic should be anticipated. For further information, or directions, contact

Forest Engineer, Christopher Bielecki at (530) 233-8850 christopher.s.bielecki@usda.gov.
