This is a geospatial shapefile related to an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing on behalf of the Wildlife Resources agency for aerial herbicide application services in the Green River District. The project encompasses aerial herbicide application across a total area of 10,934.2 acres located near Vernal, Utah. No mandatory site visit will be held prior to bidding; however, prospective bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the project site to familiarize themselves with general and local conditions that may affect pricing and performance. Failure to conduct an inspection does not constitute grounds for post-award claims. The contract is anticipated to result in a single award to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor. Contract performance is scheduled to commence upon award and conclude by October 3rd, 2026, with vendors required to guarantee pricing through project completion.

The shapefile serves as the geographic boundary definition for the 10,934.2-acre project area and contains the spatial data necessary for bidders to assess the scope and location of herbicide application work. Vendors must maintain price certainty throughout the contract term, with no adjustment provisions mentioned. The IFB structure indicates a competitive procurement process prioritizing cost as the primary evaluation criterion for award, with responsibility and responsiveness as qualifying factors.
