About this file

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This is a Timber Sale Prescription document from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Forest Resources Division, for the Roscommon Management Unit. The project involves timber marking and cruising services across four stands (70, 71, 74, and 92) totaling 106.7 acres located in Roscommon County. The work includes crown thinning treatments with a target residual basal area of 70-90 square feet per acre. For Stands 74 and 92, contractors must mark trees to cut by removing poor-formed and suppressed trees while preserving red/white pine trees 26 inches or larger in diameter at breast height. For Stands 70 and 71, contractors must mark trees to leave, focusing on healthy, well-formed trees suitable as seed sources while also preserving large red/white pine trees. Additional deliverables include GPS boundary data collection, paint line work (red for exterior state boundaries, yellow for interior payment units, and green for marked leave trees), tree marking with orange slashes for cut trees and green slashes for leave trees at breast height and ground level, and comprehensive documentation of personnel assignments and paint consumption. Contract work may begin immediately and must be completed by September 1, 2025.

The contractor must follow specific marking specifications with a minimum DBH of 10.6 inches for sawlogs and 4.6 inches for pulpwood, and stump heights must be clearly marked. The DNR will provide cruise layout files and GPS data files, with paint supplied through DNR coordination. Restrictions prohibit more than two markers per cruise unit without prior approval, and all markers must have assigned areas rather than strip assignments. All cruise and GPS data must be uploaded from MobileMap to InventoryManager. Deliverables include a list of personnel who marked or cruised each unit, a summary of paint used in quarts, and all data files. The local contact is Dakota Ewald at the Roscommon Field Office, reachable at (989) 619-5449 or EwaldD3@Michigan.gov. Pricing and payment terms are based on estimated acreage, with payment contingent on actual work performed according to specifications.

Carry marking through any isolated pockets that are heavier to hardwoods. Do not cut any red/white pine trees that are 26 inches or larger at DBH.

Stands 70 & 71: Thin down to a target of 70-90 residual BA. Mark to leave by focusing on leaving healthy well-formed trees that will provide a good seed source for future regen, and will put on growth as a result of the thinning. Also, mark to leave any red/white pine trees that are 26 inches or larger at DBH. Carry marking through any isolated pockets that are heavier to hardwoods.
