Python reporting:

If a python (Python molurus) is encountered during the conduction of vegetation treatment during the period of performance for this project, the Python Sighting Hotline should be notified via email at ever_python@nps.gov. It is best to include GPS location, time, and photos, if possible. Also, notify the COR.

B. TASK: HID MOUND TREATMENT (PR 44041113)

The work for this task is not limited by weather conditions or water levels. It can be performed year-round. A cost proposal will be produced for each mound.

Task 1 – Mound 1 (DBC Mound):

The prime contractor shall treat 100% of the Brazilian pepper - Schinus terebinthifolia, shoebutton ardisia - Ardisia elliptica, Lantana – Lantana camara, Burma reed - Neyraudia reynaudiana, elephant grass - Pennisetum purpureum, lead tree - Leucaena leucocephala, para grass - Urochloa mutica, growing on the mound (top, down side slopes and off the toe 20 feet) and taro - Colocasia esculenta (sometimes top and side slopes but usually at the toe and out 20 feet). This task also includes treating 20 feet out from the toe of the mound into the adjacent restored area. Treat plants with the appropriate herbicide and application method. Hand-pull seedlings or plants if able and technically efficient. If there are seed pods on lead tree, they should be cut, bagged and disposed.

The government estimates that the combined coverage of all species targeted for treatment is less than 10 percent. The grasses are the most common. Colocasia is almost uniquely found at the toe of the mound.

C. TASK: HID WILLOW TREATMENT (PR 44041114)

Task 1 – 54 acres Willow (Salix caroliniana) Treatment

The work for this task is best completed during the dry season which typically occurs mid-November – mid-April in south Florida. Completing this task during the dry season allows for better absorption and transportation of herbicides on targeted willows. While the intent is to award this work during south Florida’s dry season, the weather will be transitioning into an El Niño year which makes for particularly wet winter seasons.

The prime contractor shall treat 100% of the willow – Salix caroliniana. Control efforts shall be 95%. If a 95% kill rate is not achieved after three months following project completion, one additional thorough treatment of the project area will be the responsibility of the Contractor at no cost to the Government. Potable water for mixing herbicides can be found at the Daniel Beard Center. The work areas may be accessed by 4X4 truck using unpaved/unimproved roads of the HID. The contractor may stage on the mounds themselves or on the adjacent unpaved roads. No trucks or ATV/UTV vehicles may go beyond the ’05 mound or unimproved roads into the restored areas.

For your awareness we provide what our market research has found regarding herbicide alternatives for treating willow that have been used. We want to be clear that we are not recommending nor do we endorse any one of these possibilities. The contractor may consider these possibilities or propose other approaches.

Possible options of aquatic label herbicides for willow treatment at spot spray rates.

• Imazapyr at 3qt’s per acre foliar. Requires precision application. The higher the water on the trunks the more likely for some regrowth. This herbicide has a hard time translocating below the water line.

• Aquasweep, a premix of 2,4-D and Triclopyr, not so good on its own, but could add 16oz per acre Imazapyr. Be careful around Sawgrass.

9 | P a g e

• Imazamox – 48 to 64oz per acre, and you have to come back and do the same site the next year. No damage to natives other than Fragrant Water Lilly.

Maps and Tables in Appendix B. Go to the appendix to see maps and coverage data of the willow in the two treatment areas. The maps and coverage data is intended to help the contractor understand where the work is occurring and with estimating effort. Between this information and the site visits the contractor should have the ability to provide reasonable pricing.

D. TASK: HID CATTAIL TREATMENT (PR 44041112)

Task 1 – 208 acres of Cattail (Typha spp.) Treatment The work for this task is best completed during the dry season which typically occurs mid-November – mid-April in south Florida. Completing this task during the dry season allows for better absorption and transportation of herbicides on targeted cattail.

Treatment of 208 acres of cattail within the HID project area. The Government is requesting the use of the herbicide called Clearcast or equivalent active ingredient herbicide (Active ingredient: ammonium salt of imazamox) on this Task. Note: There is not a source of clean water on site for mixing herbicides.

Maps and Tables in Appendix C. The maps and coverage data is intended to help the contractor understand where the work is occurring and with estimating effort. Between this information and the site visits the contractor should have the ability to provide reasonable pricing.
