About this file

This is a purchase specification document for the Plumas National Forest's acquisition of one OHV Trail Dozer equipment unit, funded through the Plumas NF Camp Fire Settlement. The requisition is managed by the U.S. Forest Service (USDA) through Steven Dahlgren (steven.dahlgren@usda.gov), with AAP # 703142 and Requisition # 1153187. The jobcode is 0511 RIFCMP23 BOC-3110.

The Trail Dozer must be a compact tractor-type machine specifically engineered for forest trail construction and maintenance, weighing less than 10,000 lbs to permit transport with a standard California Driver License. The equipment requires a Tier 4 turbocharged diesel engine (74 HP at 2,000 RPM) compliant with EPA and CARB emissions standards, with a 12-volt dry cell battery rated for 800 cold cranking amps. Physical dimensions are constrained for forest maneuverability: maximum width 48 inches, length 158 inches, height 82 inches, with minimum 8 inches ground clearance. The dozer must feature a 6-way blade with lift and tilt capabilities (24-inch minimum lift/drop, 30-degree angle, 25-degree tilt), three-shank rippers capable of breaking compacted soil to 18-inch depth, and a 9-inch sheep foot roller for trail compaction. Additional required components include cable-drive steering with dual controls, 15-20 gpm hydraulics at 2,200 PSI with triple filtration, 12,000-pound winch, auxiliary lights (front and rear), ROPS/FOPS safety compliance meeting ISO 3471:2008 and ISO 3449:2005 Level II standards, and California Title 8 Section 1596 compliance.
