140L1223Q0072/0003 instances in Units 5 and 6 where sagebrush might be masticated; however, sagebrush is not the primary species in which to be treated.

Question 3. Is the dead and down to be treated or left? (Pockets of large fallen trees and old junipers in the rocks.)

Answer 3: Dead and down will be left untreated.

Question 4: Is it possible to chip and remove the

Juniper? If so, if we are at it and if you are planning to remove larger than 8" / 10" in other species in another entry could you incorporate that into this contract (chip and remove)?

Answer 4: Chip and haul is not considered as a treatment option for this project. Mastication is the primary treatment method.

Question 5: Is there an upper diameter limit within the pine plantation? (verbal)

Answer: Although there is no diameter limit specified, the legacy trees shall be retained within the plantation. Recommendation would be too thin around the drip line of the legacy trees.
