28-REVISED - Attachment E - Nutrient Management Plan Athletic Fields 2024.pdf

This is a Nutrient Management Plan attachment document for athletic fields at George Mason University, a public institution of higher education and agency of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The document serves as a supporting exhibit to the Landscape Maintenance Services Request for Proposal, which seeks proposals for comprehensive landscape maintenance services across multiple George Mason University campuses and facilities including Fairfax, Arlington, Prince William (SciTech), Front Royal (SMSC), Potomac Science Center, and Point of View. Offerors may propose on one, some, or all campuses but must offer on the entirety of any selected campus or site without partial offerings. The University intends to award one contract for all sites but retains absolute discretion to award multiple contracts to different firms. All offerors will be evaluated using identical scoring criteria regardless of the number of sites offered.

The nutrient management plan specifically addresses athletic field maintenance requirements and serves as a technical specification document for landscape contractors bidding on the services. This attachment establishes the standards and protocols that successful bidders must follow for managing nutrients and maintaining the athletic field facilities across the University's multiple locations. As part of the comprehensive landscape maintenance services contract, the nutrient management plan represents an essential component of the scope of work and ensures that contractors understand the specialized requirements for athletic field stewardship and environmental compliance.
