SOW: Ash Mountain Pasture Fence Replacement

Background

Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks (SEKI) staff maintains miles of fencing in the parks. These fences serve a multitude of purposes, but among them is establishing a perimeter for the pastures used by government owned stock. For a several months a year, government owned horses and mules (stock) live in corrals and pastures within SEKI. Competent fences are critical to preventing stock from damaging resources or potentially injuring themselves by reaching areas outside of designated areas.

SEKI has a need to replace fencing at the end of its life cycle surrounding portions of its pastures in the Ash Mountain area of SEKI.

Statement of Work (responsibilities)

1. Contractor shall supply provide all materials, equipment and labor needed to replace pasture fencing.

2. A map of the area is included. Contractor shall replace all pasture fencing denoted with a red outline (existing fences shown in yellow). Contractor will be responsible for doing their own linear takeoffs – approximately 7,100-feet of fences will be replaced. Priority will be given to completing the southern and western fences.

3. Fence posts shall be pressure treated wood with a minimum size of 4-inches by 4-inches. Perimeter posts will be set every ten feet. Posts will be embedded at least two feet into the ground. Posts will be encased with concrete measuring 12-inches diameter x 12-inches deep at the bottom of the post – concrete will not extend below the post. Posts will extend at least 66-inches above the ground.

4. Metal T-Posts may be used on straight fence segments to a maximum length of 40-feet. Wood posts will be used at all angle points, hill crests, and valleys. Metal posts spaced at 10-feet intervals will have wood posts on either side – wood post, three metal posts maximum, wood post. Metal T-Posts do not require a concrete footing but shall be driven in to the ground to the top of the T-post chevron plate.

5. Wire shall be used between posts. The lower three wires shall be 12.5 gauge high-tensile, smooth wire. The upper two wires shall be barbed wire of the same gauge. Five wires shall be installed with the bottom wire falling 12-18 inches above the ground. The top wire shall be 60-inches above the ground. Other wires will be equally spaced.

6. All wires shall be attached using T-post clips (metal posts) or 1-3/4-inch fence staples (wood posts) as appropriate.

7. Existing fence wire shall be removed. Any existing fence posts shall be removed.

8. The new fence shall be constructed in the same alignment as the original fence. Any deviation in alignment must be approved by the NPS.

9. A road does not follow the existing fence – a suitable UTV may be used to move materials through the pasture to the fence where truck access is not possible. There will be locations where walking of materials to the fence line will be required.

NPS Responsibilities

1. The Facility Manager or acting will inspect and monitor progress.

2. NPS will review any Contractor request to deviate from the original alignment and respond within 14-days.
