Arrowhead State Trail Rare Plant Survey

This is an index file for the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MN DNR) Parks & Trails Division's rare plant survey project along a proposed re-route segment of the Arrowhead State Trail, managed by the Tower Area. The project requires a comprehensive rare plant survey along a 6.2-mile corridor with survey coverage extending 50 feet from the trail centerline on both sides to identify the presence of any rare species prior to trail re-routing and surface upgrades. The surveyed area encompasses a diverse landscape including constructed trail and road areas, clear-cut forests, clear-cut regrowth, and mixed deciduous and coniferous forest. The survey is essential to inform decision-making regarding the planned re-routing and to support the upgrade of the trail surface for all-season ATV use.

The index file does not contain specific information regarding pricing terms, contract duration, bidder response or due dates, site visit requirements, pre-bid meetings, or award timelines. Additional documentation within the contract opportunity package would contain the detailed specifications, evaluation criteria, and administrative requirements necessary for bidders to prepare responsive proposals for this ecological survey project.
