This is a Phase 1 map document supporting a Request for Proposal issued by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources for hazard tree removal services at Lewis and Clark State Park in Monona County, Iowa. The project targets the removal of dead and dying eastern cottonwood trees exhibiting over 50% crown dieback, stressed by drought conditions between 2020 and 2025. The trees are located near Blue Lake, an oxbow lake formed by the Missouri River. The RFP was released on December 30, 2025, with proposals due January 30, 2026, at 2:00 PM CST. The project is structured in two phases, with this map depicting Phase 1 scope and locations. Contractors must submit separate technical and cost proposal files, complete all required certifications, and follow specific submission guidelines, with sealed proposals required until the deadline. Interested parties should contact Colton Lullmann at colton.lullmann@dnr.iowa.gov for additional information.

Payment terms include options for 15-day and 30-day discounts, with all financial transactions conducted in US dollars. Contractors requesting confidential treatment of proposal information must complete Form 22 Part 2 and mark confidential pages accordingly. Supporting documentation includes project overview maps, phase-specific maps, roads and trails maps, and debris pile location maps.
