Description

This project includes the manual brushing of approximately 87 hectares (7 treatment units) and up to 130 person days of ‘day rate’ brushing within BC Timber Sales’ Kootenay Lake Field Unit. Treatment units are spread across the area and are generally within the vicinity Kalso, Duncan Lake and the East Shore (north of Riondel).

Manual brushing includes cutting all competing vegetation within a 1.25m cylinder around crop trees, with a power saw or similar, in accordance with the contract treatment specifications. All manual brushing will use a 1.25m ‘variable radius’ around crop trees unless otherwise directed. On steep slopes this results in more cutting above the crop tree, less cutting below. See Section 8 of the Schedule C and the treatment prescriptions for full specifications.
All specific information regarding crop trees species, heights, target vegetation and other important information is included in Appendix II – Vegetation Management Prescriptions and Appendix IV – 2025 Brushing Treatment Ledger.

This tender will acquire both PRODUCTION unit rates as well as person DAY rates for the performance of this work.

There is a minimum production requirement of satisfactorily treating 5 (five) hectares per workday, based on 5 workdays per 7-day period. Expected time frame for brushing operations critical for crop establishment (Establishment Brushing) is mid-June 2025 – late July 2025. All Establishment Brushing works must be completed by the end of July 2025 unless mutually agreeable in writing by the contractor and the Ministry Representative. If fire hazard shutdowns impact the completion of work in July, the remaining work will be delayed to September 2025.

This project also includes an estimated 130 person days of ‘day rate’ manual brushing on sites that are to be determined. Day rate services are all found and bid per person, per day, and are assuming one truck with a crew of 4 or 5 workers or multiples thereof.

The attached Schedules contain many important treatment and payment details relating to this contract; please review them carefully.
