STATEMENT OF SERVICES:

Herbicide Application

Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge

l. GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1 This contract provides for aerial application services for the control and eradication of target Phragmites australis in the wildfire burn scar and Acer rubrum, Clethra alnifolia, Toxicodendron radicans and other woody or herbaceous vegetation in managed forest stands in the southeastern part of the refuge (Figure 1).

1.2 Phragmites australis

Treatment of Phragmites australis populations will be accomplished through the application of chemical herbicides on up to 600 acres of infested Phragmites australis across about 3,000 acres of the fire scar.

Phragmites are present in isolated stands of various sizes and densities (Figure 1). Existing Phragmites north of Interior Ditch Road (west of Lake Drummond) will be prioritized. Second priority will be south of Interior Ditch Road, to the edge of Riddick Ditch Road as indicated in yellow of Figure 1. If funds remain on the contract, the contractor will consult with the Refuge Manager for further treatment of third priority areas, identified in blue of Figure 1 in North Carolina.

Treatment units are located in forested wetland in the southeastern section of the refuge known as the Blocks (Figure 1). Spray units may be from 100 to 300 acres in size.

1.4 Contractor shall furnish all necessary equipment, labor and materials necessary to accomplish the herbicide application. Spraying will take place by rotary wing aircraft (helicopter). The herbicide application(s) shall be during the late growing season in SE Virginia with all application(s) completed by October 10, 2022. All herbicide application(s) shall be consistent with the product label instructions, manufacturer's guidance and the requirements of this contract.

1.5 The period of performance shall be within 20 days after award; with an expectation that the treatment will occur by October 10, 2022.

Herbicide/Surfactant for late season spray: Contractor shall apply via rotary wing aircraft the herbicide that best controls hardwood trees and shrubs; this herbicide includes a mixture of water, Habitat (or their chemical equivalents when similarly labeled materials are available from multiple suppliers and approved by the NWR Project Officer) and Methylated Seed Oil, at the rate of 2 pints (32 oz.) Habitat + 3.2 oz. MSO at 10 gallons per acre. These herbicides will be appropriately labeled for specific application (i.e. aquatic label for use directly over water). Herbicides must be registered for aquatic use.

Project Officer: Chris Lowie, Refuge Manager, Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge (NWR), 3100 Desert Road, Suffolk, VA, 23434 (Office # 757-986-3705).

2.2 Site Location: Treatment areas are located within the areas depicted in Figure 1.

3. TREATMENT AREAS, CONTROL GOALS AND HERBICIDES

3.1 General: Specific treatment units have been evaluated and mapped during the growing season, via aerial reconnaissance by FWS Biological Staff and using Global Positioning System (GPS) equipment. Individual spray units may be from 0.01 acre to 50 acres in size for phragmites and from 100 to 300 acres for forested units.

The contractor is encouraged to visit the sites to determine the logistics required for the work. The purpose of this treatment is to achieve the vegetation control goals described in the next paragraph.

3.2 Vegetation Control Objectives: A minimum of 95% of all the identified areas will be sprayed, with each area receiving at least 95% coverage by foliar spray, to the degree that effective treatment of at least 95% of the targeted area is completed.

3.3 Herbicide Selection Procedure: The contractor will use “Habitat®” and "Methylated Seed Oil (MSO)" or their chemical equivalents, when similarly labeled materials are available from multiple suppliers and approved by the NWR Project Officer. These herbicides/surfactants will be appropriately labeled for specific application (i.e. aquatic label for use directly over water). Herbicides must be registered for aquatic use. No restricted use herbicides are allowed. No herbicides can be used on National Wildlife Refuge property without prior approval from the Project Officer. In addition, all carriers and adjuvant must be non-toxic and registered for water applications. A surfactant shall be added per label instructions to all herbicide mixtures.

3.4 Minimizing Impacts to Non-Target Species: No broadcast spraying shall be performed when wind speeds exceed specifications listed on the herbicide label, or 10 mph, whichever is greater, or wind directions are likely to result in drift to non-target areas, or public use areas.

4. NOTIFICATION OF TREATMENT

The contractor will provide a 72-hour notice to the NWR Project Officer before arriving at the site locations for herbicide treatment work. This will ensure that Refuge staff is available to answer questions, participate in any reconnaissance that may be conducted, and close the area to public use if needed.

The contractor is required to provide a secondary containment system around their herbicide mixing area when herbicides are mixed on government property. This containment system must be constructed of impervious materials. The contractor will ensure that no contamination of any water source occurs and that emergency spill containment equipment is at the worksite and is capable of containing all potential herbicide spills from contractor vehicles/equipment. Unused, mixed pesticides will be disposed of in accordance with local, state and EPA guidelines. Spray equipment cleaning will also be accomplished in accordance with these guidelines. Prior to leaving a worksite for the day, the contractor shall remove all equipment and unused materials, any waste materials, oil, empty herbicide containers and litter resulting from contract activities on government property.

5.2 Equipment: The equipment used by the contractor shall be designed for such work and operated in a safe manner. The equipment will be capable of accurately delivering a predetermined rate per acre dosage of herbicide.

Evidence of such licensing shall be submitted with the "Application Plan" as outlined in Paragraph 7. 1.

6.5 EPA Registration Label: All work shall be performed in accordance with the instructions on the EPA registration label of the chemical herbicide used. All safety instructions featured on label shall be strictly adhered to.

6.6 Material Safety Data Sheets: Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) shall be submitted to Contracting Officer with the "Application Plan" as outlined in Section 7.1. The Contractor shall also make these MSDSs readily available to all affected contract employees.

6.7 Spills and Contamination: The contractor shall submit as part of the "Application Plan" described in Section 7.1, the response measures to be implemented should a spill or contamination occur.

This plan shall be submitted for review and approval within 7 working days of the notice of contract award and prior to the desired start of work. Government approval of this plan in no way relieves the contractor of any liability for compliance with all Federal, State, and/or local regulations, should there be omissions/errors within said plan.

7.2 Post-Application Documentation: The contractor shall submit a spray log to the Project Officer within seven (7) days after treatment detailing: day(s) and time(s) sprayed, chemical applied, application rate, weather conditions (average wind speed, temperature, humidity, cloud cover).

9. LIABILITY OF AND DAMAGES TO THE GOVERNMENT

The insurance must provide coverage for the entire contract period. The insurance policy shall state that it cannot be cancelled without 30 days written notice to the Contracting Officer.

The contractor will be in default and the contract terminated if the insurance lapses and is not immediately replaced with equal coverage. (If insurance lapses, work is suspended pending replacement insurance. The delay is not compensable to the contractor).

9.2 Government Liability: The Government assumes no liability from the contractor's performance of the contract work. The contractor shall hold and save the Government harmless from any and all liability arising from the performance of the contract.

9.3 Responsibility for Damages: The contractor is responsible for all damages to persons and property resulting from performance of the contract work.
