About this file
This document is a Question and Answer (Q&A) response for a Request for Quotation (RFQ) FA483025Q0062 for tree cutting services at Bemiss Field on Grand Bay Range, Moody AFB, Georgia. The Q&A document provides detailed clarifications about the tree cutting project, including site-specific details such as terrain composition (approximately 14.3 acres of wetlands and 7.7 acres of uplands) and tree cutting specifications. Key responses address questions about tree felling requirements, including guidance that all trees over 10 feet in height should be cut, and that wet areas may require a tracked feller-buncher machine to navigate the terrain.
The Q&A responses also clarify boundary marking, with the south boundary defined by previous clearing and west, north, and east boundaries marked with orange paint and pink flagging labeled "Timber Harvest Boundary". The government specifies that no trees should be left on the main access road, in adjacent ditches, or across the firebreak. The tree cutting is part of a safety project to reduce obstacle heights near an HC-130 assault strip, with fallen trees required to remain on-site due to potential embedded bullets and metal fragments. The project is set aside for small businesses, with a site visit scheduled for 14 July 2025 and quotations due by 2:00 PM EST on 29 July 2025.

Example: Trees under 10 feet do not need to be felled. | All trees over 10 feet in height should be cut and felled. | |||
| 3 | During the site visit, the gentleman giving an overview of the site stated “This area had already been cut”. This was in reference to the area of the stand that had been cut & had smaller wetland understory species. Question: No wetland understory species need to be cut. Soley the trees over the determined height requirement should be cut, correct? | The wet areas will need to be cut by a tracked feller-buncher machine like that used in swamp logging, which may require creating a matt with the smaller trees. It is understood all vegetation may need to be run over or cut during the operation. | |||
| 4 | This site will be authorized for a hand felling crew – no heavy machinery? | The time frame will be limited to 7-10 weekdays 14 calendar days. so a hand crew could not accomplish this.

The west, north and east boundaries of the area to be cleared will be marked with orange paint and pink flagging labeled "Timber Harvest Boundary."
