Triangle Uplands Mastication.kmz

This is a geospatial mapping file (KMZ format) associated with an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing on behalf of the Wildlife Resources agency for mastication treatment services in the Triangle Uplands area of Grand County, Utah. The project requires mastication treatments using bullhog-type equipment to remove pinyon/juniper vegetation across a base acreage of 1,100.3 acres, with an optional acreage of 527.1 acres. The treatment objective is to restore the landscape to a mosaic pattern of varying vegetation densities with scattered untreated leave islands. Work is scheduled for two periods: November 1, 2026 through February 28, 2027, and August 1, 2027 through September 28, 2027, with a mandatory work suspension from March 1 through July 31, 2027 due to wildlife restrictions. No mandatory site visit will be held prior to bidding, though potential bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the site independently. The IFB anticipates a single contract award to the lowest responsive and responsible vendor.

The project budget is $721,079 for all acreage. Participation is limited to prequalified contractors on the current pre-approved vendor list only. Vendors must guarantee their pricing through project completion. The contract term extends through September 28, 2027, with no renewal options mentioned in the solicitation documents.
