Boise Invasives Treatment Contract:

Cow Creek to Wildhorse EDRR Atlanta Sawtooth Weed Treatment

South Zone Post Fire Restoration Project North Zone Post Fire Restoration Project

Boise National Forest

Specifications February 23rd, 2022

OBJECTIVES:

The objective of this project is to effectively continue noxious weed/annual grass management and treatment during the growing season through the use of chemical controls within the known and discovered noxious weed and annual grass infestations. Treatment areas are located on the Boise National Forest. This project involves four specific treatment areas which are described by location and in detail below:

1). Treatment area #1 - (known as the Cow Creek to Wildhorse EDRR Project) is on the Mountain Home Ranger District located within the boundary of the Big Springs Cattle and Horse (C&H) Allotment, approximately 35 miles Northeast of Mountain Home, Idaho, on the Boise National Forest. Using chemical controls on known and newly discovered annual grass infestations and noxious weeds, rangeland and watershed health will be restored on approximately 70 acres within Sage Grouse habitat. This project site has an emphasis on treating ventenata, medusa head and cheatgrass. However, noxious weeds will also be treated within the project area. Sites will be checked for effectiveness after the initial herbicide treatment and re-treated if necessary. The expectation is to have an increase in perennial grasses and forbs, including preferred sage grouse species such as lupine, hawks beard, arrowleaf balsamroot and milkvetch's and a decrease in noxious weed and annual grass presence.

2). Treatment area #2 - (known as the Atlanta Sawtooth Weed Treatment) is on the Idaho City Ranger District near Atlanta, Idaho, approximately 130 miles Northeast of Boise, Idaho, located on the Boise National Forest but also borders the Sawtooth Wilderness. Treatment areas will be focused within designated motorized and non-motorized trail networks. The overall objective of this project area is to build upon previous noxious weed management. This area has been impacted by a large influx of recreational traffic ; the treatment of the project area would directly reduce the spread in and around the wilderness and surrounding areas. The noxious weeds that will be targeted in this treatment would be spotted and defuse knapweed, dalmatian toadflax and orange hawkweed.

3). Treatment area #3 - (known as the South Zone Post Fire Restoration Project) is on the Mountain Home Ranger District near Anderson Ranch Reservoir, approximately 33 miles north of Mountain Home, Idaho, on the Boise National Forest. Treatment areas will be focused within the South Fork of the Boise River corridor between Anderson Ranch Reservoir and Danskin Bridge. Also included in this treatment area is the Wilson Flat Trail System, just above Anderson Ranch Reservoir. The overall objective of this project area is to improve forest, rangeland, shrubland and watershed health and reduce the secondary effects, weed establishment, and spread, that a fire can have in post-fire areas.

4). Treatment area #4 – (known as the North Zone Post Fire Restoration Project) is on the Lowman Ranger District, near Lowman Idaho, approximately 90 miles from Boise, Idaho, located on the Boise National Forest. Treatment areas will be focused on the Deadwood Reservoir corridors. The overall objective of this project area is to improve forest, rangeland, shrubland and watershed health and reduce the secondary effects, weed establishment, and spread, that a fire can have in post-fire areas.

An Early Detection and Rapid Response (EDRR) protocol for detection and treatment will be applied to all four project areas using herbicides for annual grasses in small-isolated patches (i.e. specifically medusa head and ventenata) and weed species on the Idaho State noxious weed list that are of particular local concern but not limited to: spotted knapweed, diffuse knapweed, white top, yellow and dalmatian toadflax, leafy spurge, hounds tongue, rush skeletonweed, Canada thistle, scotch thistle and orange hawkweed. Complete eradication of invasive plant species on Forest lands is a difficult task, but with our combined, diligent, and ongoing efforts it remains a realistic goal.

SCOPE OF WORK:

Landscapes disturbed by fires or invasive plants directly favor colonization of new and survived noxious weeds. Early detection and treatment of small annual grass and noxious weed patches is crucial to prevent or mitigate establishment of annual grasses and noxious weeds, and to establish or maintain healthy plant communities. If these undesired infestations are allowed to become large-scale, the infestations can persist and become very difficult and expensive to manage. Also, since the seeds from noxious weeds can remain viable in the soil for several years it is critical that noxious weed/annual grass patches, including adjacent areas, be surveyed, and treated for years to come. This work consists of annual grass/noxious weed management and treatment during the growing season using chemical control, specifically within known and newly discovered weed infestations. Noxious weed treatment is critical for maintenance. Taking an EDRR approach with some of the newly established annual grasses and noxious weeds is critical to minimize spread of these species and grow the core area to continue establishment of desired native perennials, grass and forb species, and some shrub species.

The Cow Creek to Wildhorse EDRR project (project area #1) is in relatively good and healthy rangeland condition. Our goal is to keep “good” quality habitat and to support the improving trend in the project area through an EDRR approach of annual grasses and noxious weed treatments. While some herbicide treatments have kept existing populations at bay/or eradicated some populations completely, there is a need for additional treatments to slow the expansion of known annual grass populations. It is critical to continue our herbicide treatment efforts through EDRR on these disturbed landscapes in sage-grouse habitat to maintain healthy community types. Post treatment in this area, we will see an increase in perennial grasses and forbs, including preferred sage grouse species such as lupine, hawks beard, arrowleaf balsamroot and milkvetch's and a reduction in noxious weeds and annual grass presence.

Also, by improving the overall landscape in this project area, it will aid in increasing the native plant population, restore sagebrush habitat, and provide healthy nesting and brood rearing habitat for sage grouse.

The Atlanta Sawtooth Weed Treatment project which borders the Sawtooth Wilderness area (project area #2) has isolated patches of noxious weeds, throughout the project area. The project area is a high use recreation area, resulting in the spread of noxious weeds through recreational vehicles and foot traffic. Treatment of these infestations will result in directly influencing other facets of forest and rangeland ecosystems, which include providing adequate forage and habitat for wildlife. By improving the overall landscape in this project area, these efforts will aid in stopping the spread of noxious weeds into the pristine wilderness area and increases its resiliency to fire by increasing native plant species.

The South Zone Post Fire Restoration and the North Zone Post Fire Restoration Projects (project areas #3 and #4).

Currently on the North Zone portion, there are small, isolated patches of noxious weeds throughout this project area.

However, on the South Zone portion, the infestations are larger and more widely dispersed. Since these project areas are in a high use recreation area, this results in the spread of noxious weeds through recreational vehicles, foot, and horse traffic. By reducing the infestations in these recreational areas, we can obtain our goal to reduce densities of invading noxious weed infestations and prevent the establishment of new infestations. Herbicide treatments for noxious weed infestations can reverse the negative impacts these toxic plants have on our forests and rangelands by restoring desired native plant species.

Treatment will occur specifically within known noxious weed infestations and new annual grass infestations. Newly discovered infestations in this area will also be treated. See attached maps for identification & site information. Any Idaho State listed noxious weed population found within the treatment areas may be treated. However, in the event available funding will not allow for treatment of all known or discovered infestations, priority will be given to Idaho State listed species that are of particular local concern, specifically, spotted knapweed, diffuse knapweed, rush skeleton weed, white top, Canada thistle, scotch thistle, yellow and dalmatian toadflax, leafy spurge, hounds tongue, and orange hawkweed.

The contractor will provide transportation, supervision, labor, operating supplies, appropriate herbicide as specified below, sufficient amounts of dye, surfactant, and incidentals. Additionally, a global positioning unit (GPS) will be used

(provided by the contractor) to record areas of treatment by species. New infestations encountered will be inventoried using GPS, and then treated according to the specifications.

LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION:

The 4 project area maps show the overall treatment locations. Additional treatment area maps will be provided. We are requesting treatment of approximately 887 acres between the four project areas. Attached project maps identify the treatment areas and approximate acres to be treated, based on known locations. A written description of the general area is provided below, as well as attached maps showing boundaries of areas to be surveyed, GPS and treated. Driving instructions to the general treatment areas are also provided below.

ACCESS to Noxious Weed Treatment Areas:

The locations of the various annual grass and weed infestation sites are shown on the attached project area and site maps:

1. Cow Creek to Wildhorse EDRR Project area – This area will be limited to using ATVs with mounted sprayers or hiking using backpack sprayers with an expected implementation of 4 days spraying for annual grass/noxious weed treatment. The terrain is somewhat variable throughout the treatment area, however, is largely gentle and rolling at treatment sites. Newly identified infestations within the treatment area will be inventoried (with GPS) and treated.

2. Atlanta Sawtooth Weed Treatment project area - The trailheads are easily accessible by two or four-wheel drive vehicles and then this treatment area will be largely limited to hiking or using livestock (horses, mules, goats etc.). Some trails may be accessible by ATV or possibly a single-track vehicle (motorcycle) with prior approval. The trailheads are not included in this scope of work since they are being treated by a different entity. Backpack pumps will be necessary for all of the applications. The terrain is variable throughout the treatment area, gentle and rolling at some sites while steep and rocky at others. Newly identified infestations within the treatment area will be inventoried (with GPS) and treated.

3. South Zone Post Fire Restoration Project area – This area will largely be limited to using ATV’s or UTV’s with mounted sprayers or hiking using backpack sprayers for noxious weed treatment. The terrain is somewhat variable throughout the treatment area, however, is largely gentle and rolling at treatment sites. Newly identified infestations within the treatment area will be inventoried (with GPS) and treated. Those portions of the Wilson Trail system should be accessed using a UTV /ATV that meets the trail requirements of 54 inches or less.

4. North Zone Post Fire Restoration Project area - The entire treatment area is accessible using 4x4 vehicles, ATV’s with mounted sprayers, or UTV’s with mounted sprayers. The terrain is somewhat variable throughout the treatment area, however, is largely gentle and rolling at treatment sites. Infestations are minimal and is comprised of small patches many less than 1/8 of an acre. Located just off the roadsides within the 25 ft buffer area. This project can be completed using minimal spot spraying. Any newly identified infestations within the treatment area will be inventoried (with GPS) and treated. Treatment is estimated to take 4 working days. (2 in the Spring, 2 Retreatments in late summer).

DRIVING DIERECTIONS:

1). Cow Creek to Wildhorse EDRR Project – Off of I-84, take exit 95 and head north and east on Highway 20 approximately 30 miles to Forest Service Highway 61. Turn north towards Pine and Featherville. Project area starts in about 1 and 1/2 miles on the east side of the road.

2). Atlanta Sawtooth Weed Treatment – From Boise it is approximately 130 miles (depending on which way you travel) to Atlanta, Idaho, the central point for access to the treatment area. There are three proposed driving directions to get to Atlanta from Boise, Idaho.

a). If driving from Boise this may be the preferred route. Take HWY 21 past Idaho City to the Edna Creek turn off, take a right on FSRD 384, approx. 14 miles. Then take a left on FSRD 327 and follow for approx. 13 miles then take another left on FSRD 268 for approx. 14.6 miles arriving in the town of Atlanta.

b). From Boise head east on I-84, take exit 95 and head north and east on highway 20 approximately 30 miles to Forest Service Highway 61. Turn north go 18 miles towards Pine. At Pine, turn right on N Pine-Featherville Road for 10 miles, turn left on FS Road # 156 for approximately 8 miles to Rocky Bar, Idaho, then turn right onto James Creek Road and go about 13 miles to the Middle Fork of the Boise River. At this junction turn right and Atlanta is approximately 2 miles up the road.

c). From Boise take Highway 21 N for 9 miles and turn right onto East Spring Shores Road. Atlanta is approximately 80 miles from this turn-off. Once past Arrowrock Reservoir this road will follow the Middle Fork of the Boise River all the way to Atlanta, Idaho.

3). South Zone Post Fire Restoration Project – Off of I-84, take exit 95 and head north and east on Highway 20 approximately 15 miles to the Anderson Ranch Reservoir turn-off. Turn northwest on Forest Service Road #134 and head towards Anderson Ranch Reservoir, approximately 4 miles. After crossing the dam, turn southwest on Forest Service Road #121. The project begins at the bottom of the dam and follows the river/corridor for approximately 10 miles and ends at Danskin Bridge. To get to the Wilson Flat Trail System, turn northeast at the dam and drive approximately 2 miles above Anderson Ranch Reservoir. This portion of the project begins at the trailhead at Wilson Creek.

4). North Zone Post Fire Restoration Project – Take I-84 to the Gowen rd. exit, turn left and this turns in to HWY 21.

Take hwy 21 towards Stanley. Approx. 111 miles to forest service road 579 turn left and this is the far Northeast start of the project are. An alternate route would be taking Hwy 55 to Banks, turn left on Hwy 17 (Banks, Lowman) Highway then turning left on FSRD 555 heading North towards Deadwood. (This route is only advised for high clearance 4x4 trucks, UTV’s and ATV’s. Due to the rough terrain of the 555 road)

PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE:

Work shall begin no later than May 30, 2022 but could start as early as May 1st depending on the plant phenology of the plants. The contractor shall complete work on all bid items no later than September 15, 2022. Work periods may be adjusted if weather conditions, or plant phenology require a change. Working on weekends and holidays is acceptable except for sites, such as campgrounds, that receive heavy recreational use on weekends and holidays.

• Methods and Chemical/Control for annual grasses: Forest Service lands will be treated using an ATV and/or backpack sprayer. Medusa head and ventenata found within the boundary of the Big Springs C&H Allotment will be treated with Imazapic and Glyphosate in the spring and/or imazapic only in the fall. Treatment will likely start in mid-May of 2022 depending on the growing season and extend through September of 2022. If infestations show high density in areas, they may receive two treatments throughout the season to ensure all plants are treated.

• Methods and Chemical/Control for noxious weeds: Forest Service lands will be treated using an ATV and/or backpack sprayer. Tordon will be the preferred chemical used on leafy spurge, spotted knapweed, diffuse knapweed, rush skeletonweed, Canada thistle, scotch thistle, yellow and dalmatian toadflax, and orange hawkweed. Plateau maybe also be used on leafy spurge and Milestone can be used on knapweed. Telar will be the preferred chemical used on white top and hounds tongue.
