About this file

This is a Timber Sale Prescription document from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources Forest Resources Division for the C 58 HDWOOD Marking timber sale located in the Gaylord Management Unit. The project encompasses 282 estimated acres across sections 1, 12, and 13 in Town 30N, Range 06W, with stands numbered 2, 6, 9, 11, 20, 21 and 20B covering a mix hardwood cover types (M9). The contract work must be completed by September 1, 2021, with work beginning on November 1, 2020. The scope includes timber marking specifications with selection, crown thinning, and seed tree treatments across the various stands, timber cruising utilizing Sample Tree Ratio methodology with a BAF of 10, and paint line work (not included in the bid). The contractor must complete marking of sawlogs and pulpwood according to minimum DBH specifications of 10.6 inches and 4.6 inches respectively, with specific marking instructions including both-sided tree marking, stump marks, and preference for sugar maple, basswood, and underrepresented species as crop and seed trees.

The prescription requires deliverables including a list of personnel who marked or cruised each cruise unit, a summary of paint used in quarts, and all cruise and GPS data uploaded to InventoryManager with shapefiles of all GPS line work and regen gap delineation files. A total of 265 cruise points are specified across the stands. The contractor must coordinate with Zachary Crew at the Gaylord Field Office (989-732-3541 x5442) for paint arrangements and scheduling. The DNR will supply paint and the contractor's schedule must align with DNR availability. No more than two markers are permitted in one cruise unit without prior approval, and each marker must have an assigned area rather than strip-based assignments.
