MasticationUnitmaps_M05.pdf

This file is a mastication unit map document prepared by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing and Wildlife Resources for the BD27-105 Triangle Uplands Mastication project in Grand County. The project involves mastication treatments across pinyon/juniper dominated vegetation units totaling a base acreage of 1,100.3 acres with an optional additional 527.1 acres. The work is scheduled to be performed between October 9th, 2026 and February 28th, 2027, utilizing bullhog-type equipment to remove trees and restore the treatment areas to a mosaic pattern of varying densities with scattered untreated leave islands. This solicitation is limited to prequalified contractors only, and participation requires current status on the Pre-approved/Pre-qualified Vendor list. No mandatory site visit will be held prior to bidding; however, potential bidders are strongly encouraged to conduct their own site inspections to assess conditions that may affect contract performance costs. Award is anticipated to go to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor.

The contract is structured as an Invitation for Bid (IFB) expected to result in a single contract award. Vendors must guarantee their pricing through project completion on February 28th, 2027. The file itself appears to be a map document providing visual reference to the mastication units within the Triangle Uplands treatment area, serving as a supporting exhibit for bid preparation and site evaluation purposes.
