7-Boobe Hole Mastication Phase III Map 2026 (1).pdf

This is a project map document for the Boobe Hole Mastication Phase III project conducted by the State of Utah Division of Wildlife Resources in coordination with the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), State Trust Lands Administration (SITLA), and Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The map illustrates the geographic location and boundaries of the Boobe Hole Bullhog Mastication Project Phase III scheduled for 2026, encompassing an estimated 251 acres across multiple land management jurisdictions including USFS, SITLA, BLM, and private lands. This project is directly related to the aerial seeding contract opportunity AS27-107, which will follow the mastication work to complete ecosystem restoration activities across designated units.

The mastication phase represents the initial ground preparation stage of a multi-phase restoration effort, with subsequent aerial seeding services to be performed on a defined schedule. Seeding for BLM units #1 and #2 must commence on or before September 24, 2026, and be completed by October 7, 2026. The Boobe Hole Mastication portion (unit #3) requires seeding application on or before November 15, 2026, due to land use restrictions associated with private property. The contractor must guarantee pricing throughout the project term, with a single contract award anticipated to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. No mandatory site visit is required for the aerial seeding work component of this project.
