This file is a shapefile (BlackHorseMasticationGIS.shp) related to an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing, with the conducting procurement unit being the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources in coordination with the US Wildland Fire Service and Green River District BLM. The project, designated JH27-103 Black Horse Ridge Mastication, requires contractors to provide wildland fire hazard reduction services across approximately 722 acres through mechanical removal and shredding of standing live and dead pinyon and juniper trees, saplings, and brush using wheeled or tracked mechanical mulchers, shredders, masticators, and brush hog type mowers. The contractor must furnish all labor, equipment, supervision, transportation, operating supplies, and incidentals necessary for project completion. All work must be performed between October 18, 2026, and December 15, 2026. No mandatory site visit is required; however, potential bidders are strongly encouraged to conduct their own site inspections to understand project requirements and local conditions. The procurement is limited to prequalified contractors only, and it is anticipated that a single contract award will be made to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor.

Pricing must be guaranteed by the vendor through project completion. The shapefile serves as geographic reference data for the project area, providing spatial information essential for bidders to assess the scope and location of the mastication work. Specific pricing terms, set-asides, funding sources, and amounts are not detailed in this file summary, as the shapefile is primarily a geospatial data component supporting the broader procurement effort.
