About this file
This is an Area of Potential Effects (APE) drawing for the Alaska Railroad Corporation's right-of-way (ROW) brush clearing project in the Willow section of Alaska, located near Kashwitna Lake and Parks Highway in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough. The project encompasses a total area of potential effects of 186.3 acres, with specific clearing areas identified across six sheets: 26.1 acres (Sheet 2), 54.2 acres (Sheet 3), 55.0 acres (Sheet 4), and 51.0 acres (Sheet 5). The drawings, dated February 18, 2025, detail the rail centerline, ARRC right-of-way based on internal GIS data, and Matanuska-Susitna Borough parcels (downloaded January 13, 2025). A mandatory site visit and project tour are scheduled for October 7, 2026, at 10:00 A.M. at the Willow Section House, with pre-registration required by October 5, 2026. Bid closing is set for 3:00 P.M. AKST on October 20, 2026, with public opening of bids. The bid posting date is September 29, 2026.
Environmental restrictions are clearly noted on all project sheets: no mulching shall occur within 25 feet of anadromous waters, and within that 25-foot buffer zone, trees and tall shrubs will be cut to approximately 3 feet above ground level. The typical clearing cross-section shows an 85-foot clearing area on each side of the rail centerline within a nominal 200-foot right-of-way, with 10-foot and 5-foot buffer zones specified. The project involves private parcels, Department of Natural Resources parcels, and Matanuska-Susitna Borough parcels. Minimum rates of pay for laborers and mechanics, effective April 1, 2026 (Issue 52), apply to this project. Attendance at the mandatory site visit is limited to one estimator or authorized representative per bidding firm, and all attendees must provide their own transportation and wear required personal protective equipment including hard hats, ANSI-compliant high-visibility safety vests, safety glasses, and sturdy protective footwear with closed toes.
