CONTROL OF PEST PLANTS IN THE LAKESHORE NATURE PRESERVE

(contract last updated 04/06/2012)

SCOPE: Contract for the control of pest plants at the Preserve.  The 300 acre Preserve is located on the main UW-Madison campus.  General information about the Preserve can be viewed on the website at http://www.lakeshorepreserve.wisc.edu/ with a detailed interactive map.

Pest plant control services may be requested anywhere within the Preserve.  Specific treatment areas will be determined by the Preserve’s Field Manager or designee.  It is anticipated that the Preserve will require pest plant removal on approximately 12 acres during the initial 12 month period of this contract.  Work may occur throughout the year, although some work activities are season dependent.

Control methods may include manual (hand-pulling or digging), mechanical (cutting and mowing), or chemical (herbicide application) control of herbaceous (non-woody) and woody plants as specified by the Field Manager or designee.  Felling trees larger than 6 inches in diameter is outside the scope of this contract.

 

The Field Manager or designee will provide the Contractor with an anticipated work estimate at least twice yearly.  For Spring/Summer work (April - August) the Field Manager will provide notification no later than April 1.  For Fall/Winter work (September – March) the Field Manager or designee will provide notification no later than August 1.  Within five (5) days of receiving notification of estimated work, the Contractor will provide a written response to the Field Manager or designee indicating if the Contractor will be able to complete work as detailed in the notification.  As unanticipated needs require, the Field Manager or designee may request additional services throughout the year, not specifically detailed in the anticipated work estimate.
