Attachment B - Locator Map.pdf

This file is a locator map attachment for a timber salvage contract opportunity issued by the Governing Board of the St. Johns River Water Management District in Alachua County, Florida. The contract pertains to a per-ton timber sale on approximately 36.1 acres within the Longleaf Flatwoods Reserve, located west of County Road 325 in Section 9, Township 11 South, Range 21 East. The Primary harvest area comprises the full 36.1 acres designated for clearcut harvesting of dead, dying, and green pine, with an Optional area where buyers may harvest dead pine only. All operations must commence within fourteen calendar days of contract execution. The District estimates timber volumes of approximately 860 tons of pine pulpwood, 126 tons of chip-n-saw material, and 1,550 tons of saw-timber, though no guarantee of volume presence is provided.

This timber salvage initiative has been necessitated by an Ips beetle infestation affecting the property. The locator map serves to delineate the sale boundaries, including roads and firebreaks, to provide bidders with clear geographic reference and spatial understanding of the harvest areas. The District's Project Manager retains authority to determine the allowable extent of harvesting within the Optional area, ensuring adaptive management based on field conditions and project objectives.
