Attachment 2 - SCHEDULE OF ITEMS.docx

This document is an attachment containing a schedule of items for a solicitation seeking applications from professional botanists to perform botanical surveys of wildlife openings within the George Mark Forest National Forest. The surveys aim to inventory rare plant species, including those designated as Regionally Forester Sensitive, and non-native invasive plants prior to maintenance activities. Wildlife openings that have not been surveyed since 2012 or earlier which are scheduled for maintenance will receive priority. The solicitation was issued by the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Eastern Region. Applications are sought to identify botanical resources in need of protection and control invasive species in accordance with the agency's land management responsibilities.
