This is an attachment document related to an on-call tree service contract opportunity for Lancaster County, South Carolina. The document establishes the framework for providing emergency and routine tree removal, trimming, and maintenance services throughout the county. The contract is structured as an on-call arrangement, allowing the county to request services as needed rather than on a fixed schedule. Services include hazard tree removal, storm cleanup, limb trimming, stump grinding, and related forestry work. The contract term and specific performance timelines are contingent upon county demand and seasonal conditions. Site-specific requirements and service locations will be determined on a case-by-case basis as work orders are issued.

Pricing will be structured on a time-and-materials basis or fixed unit rates depending on the scope of individual work orders. The contract may include provisions for equipment rental, labor costs, and material disposal. Lancaster County may establish performance standards and insurance requirements for selected contractors. The on-call structure allows for multiple vendor engagement or a single primary contractor, with flexibility to accommodate peak demand periods and emergency situations. Contractors should be prepared to respond to urgent requests, particularly following severe weather events or storm damage requiring immediate tree hazard mitigation.
