TITLE: BDO BLM FY24 Broadcast Seeding #1 Page 12

IV. SEEDING

A. General - The Contractor shall seed designated areas in conformance with these specifications and the Detailed Specifications. Unless otherwise specified, the Contractor shall furnish at work sites applicator(s) experienced in applying seed in rough, rocky or mountainous terrain with varying topography and elevation, and all equipment, labor, supplies, and materials required to complete the job. The Contractor shall maintain his equipment as necessary to maintain satisfactory operations and continuous progress on work.

B. Equipment - Contractor shall furnish sufficient equipment to satisfactorily seed the designated areas in the time specified as required in the Detailed Specifications. Equipment shall be capable of traveling at moderate speed and at a low altitude to give proper control and distribution of seed such that uniform seeding is achieved.

C. Communication - The Contractor shall furnish sufficient equipment to have communications with the Government either by using radio frequencies designated by the COR or designated representative, or by providing a radio to the COR or designated representative.

D. Seed Tanks/Buckets - Sagebrush seed presents unique problems due to its bulkiness and its tendency to bridge in the seed tank/bucket. In addition, it is anticipated that a majority of the sagebrush seed will have a high moisture content which causes seed to compact, clump and bridge even more severely. Therefore, seed tanks/buckets shall include mechanical or pneumatic agitation systems or loading techniques to prevent the seed from bridging in the bucket and allow for continuous flow of seed for even distribution.

i. Seeding equipment shall be equipped with suitable hoppers for carrying seed with an approved distribution mechanism complete with release, shutoff, and spreading device which can be calibrated for spreading seed at the required pounds (lbs) per acre rate in a satisfactory manner and uniform pattern. Seed hoppers or buckets shall include lids which fasten securely to prevent seed from blowing out during operation.

E. Seeder Calibration - The Contractor shall initially calibrate seeding equipment to each individual mix at the required lbs/acre seeding rate prior to application on specific project areas. The Government will supply seed for calibration. However, the seed may not be available until approximately two days prior to the approximate start date of the project. Seed used for calibration shall be recovered for use on the project.

F. Seed – Contractor may be responsible for field mixing certain seed mixes or portions of seed mixes, refer to Detailed Specifications section. Seed of the species required for the contract will be issued by the Government to the Contractor. The seed will be furnished at the Boise BLM Regional Seed Warehouse located in Boise, Idaho, Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. and require 24 hour advanced notice. Alternate hours of pickup may be arranged with the COR but cannot be guaranteed. Pickup times shall be coordinated between the COR and Contractor. Seed will be issued to the Contractor, or their authorized representative, and signed for on a receipt of property (DI-105) form.

TITLE: BDO BLM FY24 Broadcast Seeding #1 Page 13

Once the Contractor has been issued the seed, Contractor has accepted possession and shall be responsible for the transportation and protection of seed from loss or damage due to weather, rodents, insects, theft, or any other hazard. Any seed damaged or lost while in the custody of the Contractor will be replaced by the Government and actual cost to the Government for replacement will be deducted from payments due the Contractor. All unused seed shall be returned to the Boise BLM Regional Seed Warehouse by the Contractor upon completion of work or termination of the contract. All empty seed bags shall be tied in bundles of 25 bags each and returned to the Government by the Contractor.

G. Seeding Operation

i. Seeding Rate - Seed shall be distributed at the required seeding lbs/acre rate. Swath width will be established at time of equipment calibration and based on meeting the required lbs/acre seeding rate as stated in the Detailed Specifications or as directed by the COR.

Periodic spot field checks throughout project implementation will be performed to ensure continued distribution at specified rates. Some seeding rates may be slightly reduced due to availability of seed and PLS ratings.

ii. Seeding Conditions - Seed shall not be applied when any wind gusts exceed 15 mph at the application site at the altitude of the application equipment. Written permission by the COR prior to work being performed can allow work to continue in windy conditions but shall not exceed 15 mph. It is also desired by the Government that the ground be covered by a minimum of two inches of snow during seeding operations. Therefore, seeding may be delayed a few days if there is no snow on the ground and snow is predicted within the two day weather forecast.

iii. Coverage – The entire ground surface within the treatment area shall receive uniform coverage at the specified rate unless otherwise specified, and except for exclusion areas as specified by the Government. Areas excluded from seeding operations within the work site boundaries shall not be included in the acreage computed for payment. Such areas will be specified in advance of seeding operations on work maps. Seeding strips shall be patterned and applied to achieve the highest possible uniformity of seed distribution. Such distribution shall not vary more than fifteen (15) percent above or below the average distribution of seed per unit on ground surface for the particular project seeding area.

Seed application shall be at the appropriate altitude above ground level to obtain proper distribution, uniform coverage, and seeding rate in lbs/acre of seed. Field checks will be made as operations progress to determine uniformity of application at the required lbs/acre rate. Any areas missed by the Contractor or seeded to less than the specified rate shall be re-treated and brought up to specifications, compensated by seeding additional acreage, or by suitable deduction from the contract price, at the option of the Government and at no additional cost to the Government.

Seed openings of the distribution mechanism shall be checked at sufficient intervals to ensure proper functioning and even distribution of seed at all times. If at any time of inspection equipment is found to have seed openings not properly operating or feeders that

TITLE: BDO BLM FY24 Broadcast Seeding #1 Page 14 are blocked by trash the Contracting Officer may require re-seeding of that portion of the area that the Government determines was not properly seeded at no additional cost to the Government.

iv. Land Ownership Patterns - Project sites include varying land ownership patterns. State and/or private land can be surrounded by BLM lands or BLM lands may be surrounded by private and state lands. Contractor shall be capable of seeding small irregular shaped areas in difficult terrain while avoiding lands not managed by the BLM that are not included in this contract.

v. Terrain - Project sites may be located in hilly to steep terrain of differing elevations.

Contractor shall be capable of applying seed in contouring patterns as influenced by topography. Contractor shall be capable of distributing the seed in varying elevations while maintaining applicable above ground level application height based on varied terrain below (i.e. not at one fixed height for all varying terrain). Contractor will not be allowed to apply the seed at one fixed height above ground level in varying terrain contours and elevation.

vi. Ground Damage - Project sites may be located in steep hilly inaccessible terrain, and may be muddy, frozen or snow covered. Contractor cannot apply seed if seeding equipment or ground support equipment would result in sustained and visible damage to ground (e.g.

damaging existing vegetation, creating ruts). Any wheel, track or other marks will not be allowed.

vii. Application Inspections - The Government will test at the beginning of operations, and periodically throughout project implementation, to ensure seeding uniformity and consistency of lbs/acre seeding rate are being met. Inspection method for lbs/acre requirements will be determined through ground-based measurements of seed applied for each seed mix/bid item. Seed samples from application will be collected on inspection trays and measured through seed counts for proper distribution and lbs/acres seeding rates.

Additionally, pounds of seed distributed and acres seeded will be tracked to ensure required application rates are being achieved. Should the Contractor wish to object in any way to the inspection sampling done at any particular time by the Government, the Contractor or authorized representative shall be present in person to voice said objections when said weight recording and/or ground recovery samplings are accomplished, and to agree upon new records and/or samples at the time, after which the weight recording and ground recovery sampling done by the Government shall be final and binding in the settlement of the contract.

H. Work stoppages – In accordance with clause 52.242-15 Suspend Work Order, the Government may stop seeding operations at any time when seeding conditions are considered sufficiently unfavorable to warrant stoppage. Contractor shall not proceed until a Resume Work Order is authorized by the Contracting Officer. Any time for which work is suspended by the Government because of unsuitable seeding conditions will be counted against the contract completion time. The performance period includes work stoppages and partial work days anticipated due to adverse weather or ground conditions.
