This file is a pesticide application sign document related to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Rushford TSI-TIS Project for Fiscal Year 2027. The project involves invasive plant and undesirable tree species control across approximately 83.5 acres distributed among two separate bid groups. Contractors must provide labor, licensing, equipment, mobilization, materials, herbicides, disposal and cleanup services, fees, tools, transportation, and reporting using cutting and herbicide hand-application methods including basal bark, cut-stump, and foliar applications. Interested parties may schedule site visits by contacting project supervisor Angela Yuska at 507-259-5827. All bid responses must be submitted electronically through the Swift Portal, with no email or faxed submissions accepted. The State reserves the right to award items separately, by grouping, or by total, and will make awards to the lowest responsible vendor meeting all specifications and terms and conditions.

Unit pricing must be all-inclusive, encompassing labor, materials, tools, transportation, equipment, sales tax, use tax, and all other costs necessary for project completion. The Direct Pay Permit 1114 does not apply to this project. Responses that fail to comply with solicitation requirements will be rejected as nonresponsive. Contractors requiring assistance with Swift Portal registration or response completion may contact the Contractor Assistance Help Desk at 651-201-8100, Option 1. Vendors are responsible for reviewing all attached documentation and ensuring compliance with all event requirements, as the DNR will determine whether specifications are met.
