Japanese_Beetle_Trap_specs.pdf

This is a specifications document for Japanese beetle traps required by the State of California for statewide detection and delimitation activities under contract opportunity P25-1433A. The document outlines detailed product specifications for two components: trap tops and catch cans. The trap top, available with or without a wire hanger, must be constructed from UV-resistant polypropylene 8623 plastic or equivalent, finished in Alpine Green Omnicolor OC6UFL colorant or equivalent. Trap tops without hangers must weigh between 5.5 and 6.5 ounces, while those with wire hangers must weigh between 6.8 and 7.5 ounces. The catch cans, which combine with the trap tops to form complete traps, must be manufactured from the same UV-resistant polypropylene 8623 plastic material with the same Alpine Green colorant specification and must weigh 1.5 ounces.

The specifications document provides dimensional diagrams and manufacturing standards but does not include pricing information, contract terms, quantities required, or other procurement details such as delivery schedules or award dates. The document focuses exclusively on the technical requirements and acceptable materials and finishes for the trap components to ensure consistency and durability for the state's statewide beetle monitoring program.
