About this opportunity

The County of San Mateo Parks Department is soliciting bids for fuel break extension work at Crocker Gate, San Bruno Mountain (Phase 2), with proposals due June 22, 2026.

The scope encompasses vegetation removal, chipping, and site preparation to create and extend a cleared firebreak corridor on County park property as part of wildfire mitigation strategy. Work must comply with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requirements and applicable local ordinances. Contractors must implement phased work with seasonal restrictions to protect sensitive habitats and wildlife, perform dust control measures, protect water quality, maintain emergency vehicle access, and prioritize native plant restoration following initial clearing. Pesticides and herbicides are prohibited except where specifically approved. The specifications require evidence of proper licensing, insurance, and equipment certification, with quality assurance inspections and performance standards to ensure fuel break functionality and environmental stewardship.

Phase 1 (2025) established a 5.6-acre fuel break at the same location; Phase 2 extends this effort. The project map identifies hazard trees by diameter class, blackberry buffer zones, steep slope areas, and existing infrastructure within San Bruno Mountain State and County Park.

Addendum #2 (issued June 18, 2026) provides revisions and clarifications to original contract specifications, including modifications to scope of work, technical specifications, performance requirements, pricing adjustments, material specifications, labor requirements, and compliance standards. Bidders must review all addendum provisions in conjunction with the original contract documents.

No estimated contract value, contract term, incumbent contractor, or evaluation criteria are identified in the posted materials.
