Q1: How many trees on each property need to be removed?
A1: It will be between 130-155 trees per acreage depending on how the farmer planted them. Some areas may be less due to staging areas and roads.
Q2: Will the trees be iden�fied or marked?
A2: Reclama�on will work with the selected contractor to mark/iden�fy the area.
Q3: Can we schedule a site visit?
Q3: There will be a site visit on Tuesday, January 30th at 9:45am. More details and i�nerary provided in updated combined synopsis/solicita�on.
Q4: Is the debri being le� behind?
A4: The contractor is responsible for the removal and disposal of the surface irriga�on lines (rubber/plas�c drip lines and surface hook ups). Wood chips are to be le� on site in large pills. Debris or items on the property (extra pipes, concrete, etc.) should be moved to a loca�on to allow the contractor to safely complete the work.
Q5: What are the direc�ons exactly to the property that has 181 acres?
A5: Specific direc�ons are not needed at this point. Access to both proper�es requires the use of our Federal Easement. Only the contractor that is selected will be provided access under our Federal Easement (no Federal escort needed) to perform the work.
Q6: Is there entrance ways where heavy machinery can enter?
A6: Yes these are unpaved farm roads and are designed to carry/support large farm equipment.
Q7: Are we hauling away all of the irriga�on materials once they are removed from the ground?
A7: The contractor is responsible for the removal and disposal of the surface irriga�on lines (rubber and plas�c drip lines and above ground hook ups). Metal pipes or debris that happens to gget exposed during tree removal, should be moved to loca�on on the property to allow the contractor to safely complete the project. The contractor is not responsible for hauling the underground debris away.
Q8: Is there any metal piping we should know about?
A8: The contractor is no expected to haul away any secondary pipes (which can be metal or PVC and are underground). If the secondary lines are disturbed via a tree removal and is crea�ng a hazard, the exposed sec�on should be removed to allow for the contractor to level the ground. They are not responsible for disposal of the secondary pipes/hook ups.
Q9: Are we able to bid the project as a large business even with the small business set-aside in place?
A9: No, this is a small business set-aside.
