1. THE GENERAL GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO CONTROL THE INVASIVE SPOTTED KNAPWEED AND SWEET-CLOVER PLANTS THAT HAVE COLONIZED PORTIONS OF THE SHORELINE AND NEGATIVELY IMPACTED THE NATIVE SPECIES. THIS WORK WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY A COMBINATION OF HAND PULLING THE PLANTS AND TARGETED HERBICIDE APPLICATION. THIS IS THE NINTH YEAR OF TREATMENT. THE WORK WILL BE BID AS LUMP SUM PRICE FOR EACH PARK. WHAT IS AWARDED IS DEPENDENT UPON BID PRICES. BIDDERS MAY BID ON ONE OR BOTH PARKS AND OFFER DISCOUNTS AS DESIRED. THERE WILL BE NO PRE-BID MEETING SCHEDULED FOR THIS PROJECT. ALL KNAPWEED, SWEET CLOVER AND BABY'S BREADTH TREATMENTS MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN JUNE AND AUGUST 31, WITH THE SECOND TREATMENTS OF REED CANARY GRASS COMPLETED BY SEPT 16, 2023. TWO COMPLETE TREATMENTS OF ALL ZONES AND POINTS OF ALL FOUR SPECIES ARE REQUIRED. SEE TASK DESCRIPTION FOR SPECIFIC TREATMENT WINDOWS FOR EACH SPECIES. THE FIRST OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE THE PRESENCE OF SPOTTED KNAPWEED (CENTAUREA SPP.) AND SWEET-CLOVER (MELILOTUS SPP.) IN THE DESIGNATED SHORELINE AREAS OF WILDERNESS AND CHEBOYGAN STATE PARKS, THEREBY FURTHER FAVORING THE PRESENCE OF NATIVE VEGETATION. THIS WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY TARGETED HERBICIDE APPLICATION AND HAND PULLING PLANTS WITHIN THE DESIGNATED TREATMENT AREAS. THE SECOND OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE THE PRESENCE OF BABY'S BREADTH (GYPSOPHILA PANICULATA) AT THE MAPPED LOCATIONS AT WILDERNESS SP AND WITHIN ALL ZONES (IF FOUND) AT WILDERNESS STATE PARK. THE THIRD OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE THE PRESENCE OF REED CANARY GRASS WITHIN CHEBOYGAN STATE PARK AT THE MAPPED LOCATIONS.
