This file is a KMZ (Keyhole Markup Language Zipped) geospatial mapping file associated with an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the State of Utah Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands through the Division of Purchasing for the Fivemile Pasture and Three Creeks Habitat Improvement and Fuels Reduction Mastication project (JH27-107). The project encompasses mechanical thinning and mastication services across up to 2,347 acres using wheeled or tracked mechanical mulching/shredder equipment (Bullhog). The solicitation is limited to prequalified contractors only, with no mandatory site visit requirement, though bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the project site. Work must commence as soon as possible following a prework meeting, with contract completion required by April 1, 2027; contract time cannot be extended due to wildlife habitat use timing stipulations. A single contract award is anticipated to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor.

This solicitation operates under fixed-price terms with no fuel surcharges or price adjustments negotiated, and the contractor must guarantee its pricing through project completion. No government-provided materials are supplied; the contractor is responsible for all equipment and resources. The state will provide no incumbent information, and no specific funding amounts or sources are detailed in the available documentation. This project prioritizes wildfire hazard reduction and wildlife habitat improvement through mechanical removal and shredding of standing live and dead pinyon pine and juniper trees and saplings across the designated acreage.
