This is a Mastication Unit Maps document related to an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing on behalf of the Wildlife Resources agency for mastication treatments in the Triangle Uplands region of Grand County, Utah. The project involves removing pinyon/juniper vegetation through mechanical mastication using bullhog-type equipment across a base acreage of 1,100.3 acres, with an optional additional 527.1 acres. The treatment objective is to restore units to a mosaic pattern of varying vegetation densities with scattered pockets of untreated leave islands. The project performance period runs from October 9th, 2026 through February 28th, 2027. No mandatory site visit will be held prior to bidding; however, potential bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the site to assess conditions affecting cost and performance. The procurement is limited to prequalified contractors only, with participation restricted to vendors on the current Pre-approved/Pre-qualified Vendor list. A single contract award is anticipated to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor.

Vendors must guarantee pricing through project completion. The solicitation does not indicate specific pricing structures, set-asides, incumbent information, or detailed funding sources and amounts within the file provided. Bidders are responsible for understanding all general and local conditions that may impact contract performance, and failure to conduct site inspections does not constitute grounds for claims after contract award.
