5-Gold Springs Hand Thin 11x17P.pdf

This is a project description and site map document for the State of Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, detailing the Gold Springs Cut and Pile/Lop and Scatter forest treatment project in Iron County. The solicitation (IFB AM27-119) seeks services for vegetation management across 278 total acres: 241 acres requiring lop and scatter treatment and 37 acres requiring cut and pile services. Participation is restricted to pre-qualified contractors who must be approved for both treatment types. The project performance period runs from October 15, 2026, through March 15, 2027. No mandatory site visit is required, and award will be made to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor based on cost per acre. A single contract award is anticipated.

The document includes detailed site maps showing the treatment areas within the Gold Springs region, with specific delineations of the lop and scatter zones and cut and pile zones. Vendors must guarantee their pricing through project completion, and the contract award methodology prioritizes the lowest per-acre cost among qualified bidders. Funding and specific budget allocations are not detailed in this project description document, though the pricing structure indicates cost will be the primary evaluation criterion for this pre-qualified contractor procurement.
