Buckskin TSI

Background- The Forest Service is in need of pre-commercial tree thinning and stand improvement activities to reduce the tree density and, by the deliberate selection of leave trees, improve the overall health and condition of the stand based on the prescribed objectives. Tree selection and cutting of undesirable or excess trees will provide space for the leave trees to grow and develop, reduce the incidence of insect and diseases that affect growth, and undesirable tree qualities. Tree thinning and associated slash treatment work is also to reduce hazardous fuels and uncharacteristic fire behavior on National Forest Lands.
Scope Of Contract- The solicitation is for tree thinning and stand improvement activities on Boise National Forest, Idaho City Ranger District. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, equipment, supervision, transportation, supplies (except those designated as Government furnished), and incidentals to perform all work necessary on the areas specified.

Project Location- The Buckskin Restoration project is located on the Idaho City Ranger District of the Boise National Forest. Access and unit maps are provided in exhibit 01 for accurate locations.
The boundaries of the contract units are generally marked with blue vinyl ribbon. Elsewhere, boundaries are defined by roads. Roads, are used here, shall mean the well-traveled portion of the road; cut banks and fill slopes may be within the contract units.
