About this file
This document provides additional questions and answers related to a federal contract opportunity for tree removal services on ten Wetland Reserve Program easements located in Pope County, Minnesota. The opportunity is issued by the United States Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service and involves the removal of brush and trees across 949.6 acres spanning ten parcels. Invasive tree species including cottonwoods and boxelder identified for removal can be burned or removed from the sites, while mature trees and black willow trees generally do not require cutting unless located within easement boundaries. Damage to vegetation or soil caused by removal equipment must be repaired by the contractor.
