SCOPE OF SERVICES

H. Contractor shall ensure conditions on the work site reflect good housekeeping and safety practices at all times. The Contractor shall be responsible for all trash and debris disposal from the work site.

I. Contractor’s equipment shall be removed from the site no more than three business days after completion of work.

J. The Contractor shall require all personnel to practice proper decontamination procedures for all equipment (including personal protective gear) to avoid unnecessary spreading of invasive and exotic pest plant species within and from each site. Decontamination protocols include blowing off or spraying down all equipment surfaces including the undercarriage and tires to ensure that mud, sand, dirt, muck and vegetative debris and other debris is not transported from the previous site.

3. MOWING/WEED EATING

A. Trail/fire break mowing: Trails/fire breaks are of varying widths (6 feet —

30 feet) and have varying heights of vegetation. Road shoulders along roads may vary from a few feet up to 25 feet in width. Trails that are under water or saturated should be avoided. Some trails as indicated on aerial maps are only 6 feet wide and require decks no wider than 6 feet; other trails can accommodate wider decks.

B. Terrain is frequently uneven. Contractor shall not gouge or scrape uneven areas.

C. Trail hazards may include feral hog rooting damage, swales, stumps, wasp nests, low hanging tree limbs, and possibly downed trees. The contractor shall remove any branches or trees that have fallen across the trail or firebreak rather than mow around them. The Contractor shall be prepared to cut up fallen trees and/or move them off trail or firebreak.

D. Mowed height of grass should be 4 inches ±1 inch. Mowed grass should be cleanly and evenly cut leaving no uncut strips or shredded tops.

E. Some trails, firebreaks or picnic areas may require a heavy-duty rotary mower/tractor designed for tall, tough grass and small diameter (<2 inches) brush. The Contractor shall maintain trails at the width described on the aerial maps. This may require equipment capable of mowing saw palmetto, sprouts of woody shrubs and/or tough grass. The mower/tractor should be of sufficient size and horsepower to operate the mower in back country conditions.

F. Finish mowing shall occur at the entrances, picnic areas, rights-of-way, some trails, and areas that are primarily grassy. Finish mowing is defined as clean cut from sharp blades, with no ragged edges, using a zero turn or similar style lawn tractor. The final cut shall be 4 inches high ± 1 inch.

G. All grass under and around gates shall be mowed or trimmed.

H. Weed-eating shalt occur around amenities such as gates, parking lots, wooden fences, picnic areas, pedestrian walk-thru areas, trail markers, trash cans, signs, etc. and provide a clean, even appearance. Weed eating

Procurement Contract #SR 2094-04 Page 13 of 28 shall occur at least under fence and one foot on either side of the fence to meet mowed edges. There shall be no strips of uncut grass between mowed and weed eating areas. Sprouts of woody shrubs and vines may be present, requiring blades instead of string to weed-eat under fences and around infrastructure. Wooden posts, fences or signs shall not be damaged by equipment.

I. Any trash found in the trails or other areas requiring mowing, shall be picked up and disposed of properly prior to mowing/weed eating and not shredded by equipment.

). Some County sites may have areas with protected species (gopher tortoises, eagles, native orchids, etc.) that may require special attention or need to be avoided. County staff will make Contractor aware of these considerations and the Contractor shall keep all work crews in compliance with these environmental issues and any associated regulations.

K. The County requires finish mowers to be equipped with a shredding/mulching mower deck. No other type of mower will be allowed.

This specialized deck does not discharge grass clippings. Any mower that blows grass clippings out the sides or rear is unacceptable.
