Control of Two Priority Invasive Weed Species at Don Edwards San Francisco Bay NWR

Scope of Work

1. General:

1.1 This project involves the control of two priority invasive weed species, on the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge (Refuge), Seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum) and Five-hook bassia (Bassia hyssopifolia). Timing, methods, and access for conducting control work for the two species will be different, as five-hook bassia is largely located in uplands/vernal pools and seashore paspalum in tidal marsh habitat. Control work for the two species is located within the same general area of the refuge, in the extreme southern portion of San Francisco Bay within Alameda and Santa Clara Counties (Figures 1, 2 and 3) . This project is coordinated by staff from the Refuge, physically located at 1 Marshlands Road, Fremont, CA 94555.

1.2 Purpose: The overall objective of this project is to eradicate two invasive plant species from specific areas of the Refuge, Seashore paspalum (Figures 1 & 2) and Five-hook bassia (Figure 3). Specifically, the proposed project includes two distinct Tasks, one for each species and spatial extent.

Task 1- Seashore paspalum (Alviso Unit):

Conduct herbicide-based control of approximately 10 net acres of Seashore paspalum (paspalum) within the Alviso Unit of Refuge and adjacent wetlands to eradicate this species from the currently infested area of South San Francisco Bay (Figures 1&2). This task will require searching for paspalum within an approximately 2,000-acre area of tidal wetlands, mapping the current extent of paspalum prior to control work, conducting herbicide treatment of paspalum, mapping areas where control work is conducted, and follow-up monitoring to determine efficacy of treatment (Figures 1&2). This task will require at least two consecutive years of paspalum treatment and monitoring.

Task 2- Five-hook bassia (Warm Springs subunit- vernal pool/grasslands):

Conduct chemical and mechanical control of five-hook bassia (bassia) in two fields/pastures (Field 5 and Field 10) at the Warm Springs Subunit of the Refuge (Figure

3) to eradicate this species from the Warm Spring Subunit. Refuge Biologist will provide map of infested areas to be used to locate and control each population. Total infested area is approximately 110 acres and net acreage of infestation is approximately 10 acres. This Task will require at least two consecutive years of bassia treatment and monitoring. At the end of the second year of treatment (or when indicated by Refuge botanist), native seed will be broadcast in treatment areas and sparsely vegetated areas of project site.

1.3 Contractor Qualifications:

a. The Contractor and field crew shall provide their own means of transportation to and from refuge lands including use of boats and land-based vehicles as necessary for crew access and to conduct all work. For paspalum treatment, Contractor must use an airboat (or similar shallow draft aquatic vehicle/boat) equipped with a spray tank/hose to monitor and treat a substantial portion of the infestation, as in many areas there is no land-based access and the water is very shallow. Other locations may require use of ATVs, trucks, backpack sprayers, or other means.

b. Contractor field staff conducting herbicide treatments and/or handling herbicides must have current California Department of Pesticide Regulation(CDPR) qualified applicators certificate (QAC) or qualified applicators license (QAL), and/or be under the direct supervision of a QAC or QAL certified individual as per CDPR regulations. Contractor must legally dispose of empty herbicide containers.

c. Contractor must obtain a current Alameda and Santa Clara County Department of Agriculture Operator ID# prior to herbicide application in the field

d. The Contractor and field crew shall be able to identify all invasive weed species mentioned in this Scope of Work, in all phenological stages (i.e. rosette/seedling, bolting/sapling, flowering, seeding).

e. The Contractor must be able to conduct weed control on varied terrain and conditions, including uplands, vernal pools, and tidal marshes.

f. The Contractor must provide all vehicles, equipment, supplies, and labor to accomplish the tasks identified, including herbicides, spray equipment, PPE, GPS/GIS mapping devices, and computer software/hardware for reporting.

g. Contractor must be sufficiently proficient in GIS/GPS to use this technology to navigate to mapped areas, collect spatial and manage spatial vegetation data, conduct analysis, and produce reports.

2. Place of Performance and Period of Performance:

2.1 Work will be completed at the following locations:

Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge (Refuge : near 1 Marshlands Road, Fremont, California 94619 Task 1: Work is to be conducted in the Alviso Unit of Refuge, which spans two counties, Santa Clara and Alameda (Figures 1 & 2 ).

Task 2: Work is to be conducted at the Warm Springs Subunit of Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge (Figure 3) and the two access gates to the site are located near the following addresses:

a) 6900 Auto Mall Pkwy, Fremont, CA 94538

b) 100 ft west of 4650 Cushing Pkwy

2.2 Work will be performed on the following dates:

Tasks 1 and 2 will be performed between January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2024. Contract may be modified to extend the period of performance if existing funds remain in contract after 2024 . In addition, if eradication of both species, as identified in Tasks 1 and 2, is not achieved with existing funding, this contract may (if initiated by Refuge personnel) be modified in future years to extend period of performance and funded added in order to achieve complete eradication. Future funding is subject to availability.

2.3 Normal duty hours are Monday thru Friday 8:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. In the event of emergencies, Contractor shall provide contact information.

2.4 Nonduty hours include week nights, weekends, and Government holidays (New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King JR.s’s Birthday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran’s Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day). Work during nonduty hours must be approved 1 week in advance.

3. Scope

3.1 Description/Background: Between January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2024 the Contractor shall conduct activies required to complete Tasks 1 and 2 described herein.

Task 1- Seashore paspalum (Alviso Unit):

The current known spatial scope of seashore paspalum infestation in the project area of South San Francisco Bay is the tidally influenced portions of Alameda and Santa Clara Counties shown in Figure 2. As of 2021, known infested areas on the Refuge include Coyote Creek Lagoon, Mud Slough, Ponds A19/A20/A21, and Coyote Creek. Other adjacent known infested areas include creeks and flood control channels upstream of the Refuge. Seashore paspalum patches occur in various types of terrain, and conditions, including salt, brackish, and freshwater marshes with different levels of tidal inundation

In 2021, seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum) was mapped in a portion of the infested area (Kerr and Gunner 2021). Net cover of seashore paspalum in this initial project areain 2021 was 14,835 m2 (3.67 ac.), with 2021 treatment of 13,945 m2 (3.45 ac.), accounting for 94% of mapped area. The gross cover mapped in 2021 was 25,005 m2 (6.18 ac.), with 23,519 m2 (5.81 ac.) treated & 1486 m2 (0.37 ac.) untreated. Portions of the known infestation outside of the Pond A19 Project area were not mapped or treated in 2021 including: upstream of the the Refuge where a rough approximation in GIS estimates an additional 10,000 m2 net cover (2.47 ac.) of seashore paspalum associated with the Alameda County Flood Control District; and a rough estimate of an additional 5000 m2 (1.24 ac) west of A19 within Refuge property. Additional areas within the scope of Figure 2 beyond those mapped in 2021 may be also be infested.

Note: Mapping is occurring in 2022, but results are not yet available. The 2022 mapping results will influence necessary mapping and control for 2023 and beyond.

Task 2- Five-hook bassia (Warm Springs subunit- vernal pool/grasslands Within the Warm Springs Unit of DESFBNWR, the infestation is currently located in Fields 5 and 10 as shown in Figure 3. The estimated extent of infestation within these two fields is 110 gross acres, with approximately 20 acres of net infestation of five-hook bassia.

The most recent mapping was conducted by the Refuge Botanist in 2022. The site is accessible by trucks and all vernal pools will be dry at the time of treatment.

3.2 Tasks and Subtasks

Interested Applicants are asked to submit separate bid details for each of the two separate Tasks (including separate Subtask costs for each) listed below and referenced herein, including annual costs for labor, equipment, supplies, etc. to complete each Task and Subtask in 2023 and 2024.

Applicants must submit bids for all Subtasks within both Tasks, as all are part of this project. Bids that do not include a budget for both Tasks and all Subtasks will be rejected. See Table 1 for a timeline of activities associated with each Task and responsibilities, and Section 4 for Deliverables requirements.

If activities and Subtasks described under Tasks 1 and 2 cannot be performed with existing funding, this contract may be modified in future years to add funds to complete these Tasks, including Subtasks. In addition, if eradication of paspalum and/or bassia is not achieved after completing two years of control activities under Task 1 and/or 2, this contract may be modified in future years to add funds in order to achieve eradication of either/both species. Potential future funding modifications are entirely subject to funding.

Task 1- Seashore paspalum (Alviso Unit) Timing of paspalum work will typically occur June-August, but will avoid the breeding season of the California Ridgway’s rail as much as practical (February 1-August 31) in areas where the rail is documented to be present or in suitable habitat. Access to the Alviso Unit to control paspalum will require land access, as well as boat access by airboat or other shallow bottomed boat, as this species is located in and adjacent to shallowly flooded tidal marshes. The Refuge Biologists will meet with the Contractor prior to commencement of weed control, to train the Contractor about sensitive resources within each Unit, and measures for minimizing disturbance.

• Subtask 1.1, Mapping: In 2023, surveys for seashore paspalum will be conducted in the 2021 initial project area and expanded outside the 2021 project area to define the full scope of the infestation in the South San Francisco Bay within Alameda and Santa Clara Counties (Figure 2), approximately 2,000 acres. High accuracy GPS receivers will be used to map infestations. Calculations of net and gross cover will be calculated from GIS in post-processing.

• Subtask 1.2, Control: Contractor will conduct control work in two consecutive years (2023 and 2024) between June and August each year, or as approved by Refuge staff. Each year, the Contractor will use herbicide control methods and timing agreed upon by the Contractor and Refuge Biologist to control up to 10 net acres of seashore paspalum within the spatial scope shown Figure 2 and identified during monitoring. Contractor will record extent of control work using high accuracy GPS receivers.

Task 2- Five-hook bassia (Warm Springs subunit- vernal pool/grasslands):

All control work will be performed when vernal pools are dry, typically May-September.

Sensitive portions of the Warm Springs subunit may be restricted. If burrowing owl nesting activity is detected on the treatment site, the Refuge staff will specify the areas the Contractor should avoid accessing, disturbance mitigation measures, as well as the timing of the restrictions. In addition, the Complex Botanist may specify areas with sensitive plant species that the Contractor has to avoid or modify the control methods and timing. Access to Warm Springs is on land by motor vehicle. The Refuge Biologists will meet with the Contractor prior to commencement of weed control, to train the Contractor about sensitive resources within each Unit, and measures for minimizing disturbance.

• Subtask 2.1, Mapping: Contractor will use maps created by Refuge Botanist to locate infested areas for treatment in Fields 5 and 10 of the Warm Springs Unit of the Refuge.

Contractor will track treatment using GPS tracking methods and report to Refuge Botanist and Warm Springs Unit Manager the treatment areas, control methods, and material.

• Subtask 2.2, Control: As of spring 2022, the extent of bassia infestation within Fields 5 and 10 of Warm Springs Unit is estimated to be 110 gross acres, with approximately 20 acres of net infestation of five-hook bassia. The Contractor will use weed control methods and timing agreed upon by the Contractor and Refuge Botanist to treat all mapped five-hook bassia within Fields 5 and 10 of Warm Springs each year in 2023 and 2024. Contractor will conduct control work in at least two consecutive years (2023 and 2024) between May and September each year. Because of the long germination time frame, we estimate a minimum of two treatment sessions in each year to ensure control of the early germinated plants as well as the plants that germinate later. The Contractor will use mostly chemical control methods but manual removal might be needed under certain conditions. Control work will be conducted using a combination of boom spraying for large infestations and spot spraying (with a hand held spray wand) in smaller patches to minimize effects on non-target species.

• Subtask 2.3, Restoration: After the second year of treatment, or when indicated by Refuge Botanist, Contractor will broadcast native plant seeds of grass species in treated and sparcely vegetated upland areas of Fields 5 and 10 in the Warm Springs Subunit . Areas to be seeded will be specified by Refuge Botanist and indicated on maps and/or flagged areas to be provided to Contractor. Species to be seeded and seeding rates will be specified by Refuge Botanist. The Contractor will be responsible for purchasing the seed mix specified by the Refuge, and broadcasting seed in specified areas. Approximate cost of seeds to be used for this Subtask will be $22,000 (per Refuge Botanist).

3.3 Site Conditions: Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1974 with the purposes of preserving and enhancing highly significant wildlife habitat, protecting migratory waterfowl and other wildlife, including species known to be threatened with extinction, and for providing an opportunity for wildlife-oriented recreation and nature study. It comprises approximately 40,000 acres of mudflat, managed ponds, tidal ponds, tidal marsh, marsh/upland transition zone, vernal pool grassland, and uplands in the South San Francisco Bay, and is one of seven wildlife refuges in the San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge Complex (Refuge Complex).

The Refuge is part of the San Francisco Bay Estuary (Estuary); an extremely productive, diverse ecosystem. More than 250 species of birds, 120 species of fish, 81 species of mammals, 30 species of reptiles, and 14 species of amphibians regularly occur in the San Francisco Estuary. The Estuary supports populations of species that are of regional, hemispheric, and global importance and was designated as a Ramsar Site in 2013. A number of endemic, endangered, threatened, and rare wildlife species or subspecies reside within the San Francisco Bay Area, and within the Refuge. This proposal will focus on two habitats within the Refuge, tidal marsh in the Alviso Unit and vernal pool grassland habitat within the Warm Springs Subunit (Warm Springs). See Figure 1 for Location Map.

Since the 1800s, over 90% of the Estuary’s original wetlands have been degraded or lost, and it has been more heavily invaded by nonnative species than any other aquatic ecosystem in North America. This dramatic decline in tidal marsh habitats has caused populations of marsh-dependent fish and wildlife to dwindle, as well as reduces the ecosystem benefits provided by marshes. The Refuge is home to some of the largest remaining prehistorical tidal marshes in the Estuary. Listed species occurring in these marshes include the California Ridgway’s Rail (Rallus obsoletus obsoletus, FE), Salt Marsh Harvest Mouse (Reithrodontomys raviventris, FE), and California Black Rail (Laterallus jamaicensis coturniculus, ST). In addition to these high-quality marshes, the Refuge is also actively restoring industrial salt evaporation ponds to a rich mosaic of tidal wetlands and other habitats as part of the South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project, the largest tidal wetland restoration project on the West Coast.

While much of the Refuge consists of tidal marshland and ponds, Warm Springs Unit is a 719 acres vernal pool grassland. It is, in fact, the region’s only substantial remaining patch of lowland vernal pool grassland, a formerly widespread ecotone between the Bay Area’s marshes and uplands (USFWS 2019). The many vernal pools and seasonal wetlands that punctuate the grassland create unique landscape dynamics and further enhance wildlife value.

Warm Springs is home to three federally listed species: the federally endangered vernal pool tadpole shrimp (VPTS; Lepidurus packardi), Contra Costa goldfield (CCG; Lasthenia conjugens), and the federally threatened California tiger salamander (CTS; Ambystoma californiense). In addition, Warm Springs supports the Western Burrowing Owl (BUOW:

Athene cunicularia hypugaea), a state species of special concern and several other special conservation status species of plants and wildlife. Warm Springs contains 250 distinct vernal pools, with a total wetland area of over 145 acres that along with the upland areas provide potential habitat for these and other species. The pools get inundated during the wet season.

Inundation of the pools depends on precipitation patterns. Typically all pools are dry by mid- May or early June. A rotational cattle grazing program is one of the primary management tools for the biological resources within Warm Springs. The site is divided in 11 fields where cattle are rotated based on the conservation goals and other natural resources considerations.

The site is closed to the public.

3.4 Management Plan. Prior to control of any plants, the Contractor and Refuge staff shall visit the Alviso Unit (Task 1) and Warm Springs Unit (Task 2) together to assess the exact scope of monitoring and control necessary. The Contractor shall develop a management plan and discuss this with Refuge staff before commencement of removal/control. The management plan should be updated annually based on the extent of infestation and results acquired in the previous year.

At a minimum, the management plan shall include the following information:

a. Proposed treatment method (manual, mechanical and/or chemical) and type of equipment required to complete Task 1 and Task 2 weed control. If chemical treatment is required, include proposed herbicide and surfactant name and application rate for each Task. For Task 2, the Refuge will provide herbicide prescriptions that have been successful for the control of five-hook bassia. All pesticides used in Refuge lands must be approved by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service through the prossess of Pesticide Use Proposals. Refuge Technical Coordinators can guide and inform Contractor on the approval status of the proposed chemicals.

b. For Task 2, proposed seed mix of native grass species (based on a seeding palette specified by the Refuge), seed ventor, seed source locality and methods of broadcasting (when applicable).

c. Timing of estimated treatment for each site and/or portions of the site for each Task.

d. Proposals for placement and/or disposal of plant parts if needed (i.e. debris piles for plants that have been cut or pulled)

e. Best Management Practices (BMPs) for minimizing impacts to special status species and sensitive habitats. .

f. BMPs to prevent spread of weed seeds or pathogens across and between sites.

g. Data collection methods (see 3.5 below)

h. Reporting timeline and components (see section 4 below)

Any modifications to the plan during the control effort will be communicated to the Refuge Technical Coordinator assigned for each task. Contractor will be responsible for the safe disposal of empty herbicide containers. At Warm Springs Unit there is available water supply to use for herbicide solutions.

3.5 Data collection and management tools.

Task 1- Seashore paspalum (Alviso Unit): High accuracy GPS receivers will be used to map infestations using the Field Maps for ArcGIS app. The refuge will create an ArcGIS Online (AGOL) map and will add the Contractor as a collaborator. Maps can be accessed in Collector or Field Maps app for field data collection. The map will include point and polygon features with drop down attribute menus. Paspalum infestations smaller than 1m in diameter will be mapped as points. Larger infestations will be mapped as polygons. Cover class and phenology of each point or polygon will be recorded. Calculations of net and gross cover will be calculated from GIS in post-processing. In addition, Contractor will record extent of paspalum control work each year using high accuracy GPS receivers.

Task 2- Five-hook bassia (Warm Springs subunit- vernal pool/grasslands): The Contractor will find each patch for control of Five-hook bassia using an AGOL map and/or GIS files provided by the Refuge , and will use these to navigate to each patch using GPS. Contractor will be asked to map the treated areas using Field Maps for ArcGIS and an AGOL map provided by the Refuge.

Data shall be collected in the UTM NAD 83, Zone 10N projection and contain Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) compliant metadata. All individual plants and patches of plants that are treated will be mapped either by point (if less than 1m in diameter) or polygon using as a reference the initial map of infestation and modifying the points or polygons as necessaryand treatment line features will be collected aduring treatment to record treatment path. Treatment information should be submitted to the Refuge within three days of treatment along with the type and total quantity of herbicide used, and an estimate of the acreage the control covered so the Refuge can coordinate other management activities and complete herbicide use reporting protocols. The maps showing the polygons of treatment should be submitted to the Refuge no later than ten days after the last treatment session of the year.

3.6 Field logistics (e.g., access) and safety. The Contractor shall meet with the Refuge Biologist prior to conducting control on the Refuge to discuss Refuge access, safety hazards, sensitive resource issues and avoidance measures, and means of communication. The Contractor shall provide their own means of transportation, including boats when necessary, and be able to access project areas without Refuge staff assistance for all elements of the project. The Contractor shall thoroughly clean and sanitize all boats, equipment and shoes/clothes before each visit to the Refuge, to ensure that no new weed seeds or pathogens (i.e. Phytophthora spp. or Chytrid) are transported onto the Refuge sites.

Minimize disturbance to sensitive natural resources. The Contractor will conduct a site visit with Refuge staff prior to invasive weed control to review sensitive resource areas and discuss measures to minimize disturbance to sensitive natural resources and plants, including vernal pools and tidal marshes. Refuge staff will notify the Contractor for presence of a sensitive wildlife species and ask to modify the course of action if needed.

4. Deliverables and/or Delivery Schedule:

Deliverables will include:
