Triangle Uplands Mastication.kmz

This is a Google Earth file (KMZ format) supporting 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 Grand County. The project encompasses mastication treatments on pinyon/juniper-dominated vegetation across a base acreage of 1,100.3 acres, with an optional additional 527.1 acres in the Triangle Uplands. The work involves removing trees using bullhog-type mastication equipment to restore the treatment units to a mosaic pattern of varying 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 performance costs. Participation in this solicitation is limited to prequalified contractors on the current approved vendor list only.

The IFB anticipates a single contract award to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor. Contractors must guarantee their pricing through project completion. Specific pricing terms, set-asides, and funding sources are not detailed in the KMZ file itself, as this file serves primarily as a geographic reference tool for the project location and treatment area boundaries. Interested bidders should refer to the full IFB solicitation document for detailed pricing requirements, terms, conditions, and submission instructions.
