5-Gold Springs Bullhog 11x17P1.pdf

This document is a project map and site plan prepared by the State of Utah Division of Wildlife Resources for the Gold Springs Mastication project located in Iron County, Utah. The project encompasses up to 256 acres requiring mastication and bullhog services to be performed between October 12, 2026, and March 15, 2027. The scope of work involves mechanical vegetation treatment using bullhog equipment to reduce fuel loads and prepare the landscape for further management activities. No mandatory site visit is required for interested bidders, and award will be made to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor based on cost per acre pricing methodology.

Pricing for this project will be evaluated on a per-acre basis, with vendors required to guarantee their pricing through project completion. The solicitation is limited exclusively to prequalified contractors on the State of Utah's current pre-approved/pre-qualified vendor list; contractors not on this list are ineligible to submit proposals. It is anticipated that a single contract award will be made as a result of this invitation for bid. This project represents routine landscape and fuels management work by the Division of Wildlife Resources and falls within the standard operational scope of the agency's land stewardship responsibilities.
