| Q1: | Can we utilize a tractor instead of an ATV for treatment of woody vegetation? |
| A1: | No. We are required to minimize our impact/footprint in these areas during treatment. If you can demonstrate that the equipment you wish to use will accomplish this it can be considered, but do not assume it is possible for purposes of bidding. |
| Q2: | Can you clarify exactly what woody vegetation should be treated within the zones identified on the plan? |
| A2: | You only need to treat woody vegetation that is 2” DBH or less |
| Q3: | Can diesel fuel be used? |
| A3: | No. The specifications require colored bark oil. |
