ATTACHMENT G – EQUIPMENT CLEANING

FY20 Sawmill Liebre Integrated Fuels and Forest

Health I Project

1) All equipment will be cleansed prior to entering Forest Service land. This includes vehicle wheels, undercarriages, bumpers, chainsaws, hand pruners or any equipment other than personnel transport vehicles. All washing must take place where rinse water is collected and disposed of in either a sanitary sewer, a landfill, or other facility authorized to accept such rinse water.

2) Upon request of Forest Service, arrangements will be made for the Forest Service to inspect each piece of equipment prior to its being placed in service.

3) If equipment is operated in areas that the Forest Service has identified as containing invasive weed species, all equipment, and tools used at that site must be washed AFTER work has been completed.

4) The Contractor should certify in writing compliance with the terms of this provision prior to each start-up of operations.

5) If any new infestation of invasive species are identified by the Contractor or Forest Service staff on the project site or access routes it shall be promptly reported to the other party.
