1. THE MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES (DNR), PARKS & RECREATION DIVISION, STEWARDSHIP UNIT IS SEEKING BIDS FOR CONTROL OF THE INVASIVE WETLAND PLANTS PHRAGMITES (PHRAGMITES AUSTRALIS), PURPLE LOOSTRIFE (LYTHRUM SALICARIA), FLOWERING RUSH (BUTOMUS UMBELLATUS), REED CANARY GRASS (PHALARIS ARUNDINACEA), NON-NATIVE CAT-TAIL (TYPHA ANGUSTIFOLIA AND T. XGLAUCA), FROGBIT (HYDROCHARIS MORSUS-RANAE), KNOTWEED (REYNOUTRIA JAPONICA, REYNOUTRIA SACHALINENSIS AND THEIR HYBRID REYNOUTRIA BOHEMICA), AND COASTAL OCCURRING LYME GRASS (LEYMUS ARENARIUS) AT 17 STATE PARKS. LARGE PORTIONS OF THESE PARKS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING RESTORED TO NATIVE LAKEPLAIN PRAIRIE, GREAT LAKES MARSH AND SHORELINE. THE LANDSCAPES WILL BE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE NATURAL WETLANDS THAT WERE COMMON ALONG THE GREAT LAKES SHORELINE PRIOR TO WIDESPREAD EUROPEAN SETTLEMENT. THE GENERAL GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO CONTROL NON-NATIVE PHRAGMITES IN TARGETED AREAS OF THESE STATE PARKS. IN MOST OF THESE PARKS THIS IS A FOLLOW-UP AFTER ONE TO SEVERAL YEARS OF TREATMENTS. AT A FEW LOCATIONS IT WILL BE THE FIRST TREATMENT. THIS WORK WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY APPLYING HERBICIDE TO THESE PLANTS USING GROUND-BASED APPLICATION TECHNIQUES (I.E., NOT A HELICOPTER OR AIRPLANE), BY A COMBINATION OF FOLIAR SPRAYING AND HAND-SWIPING HERBICIDE ONTO INDIVIDUAL PLANTS. THE WORK WILL BE BID AS LUMP SUM PRICES FOR EACH PARK WITH ONE EXCEPTION AT BAY CITY STATE RECREATION AREA WHERE THERE WILL BE TWO LINE ITEMS. BIDDERS MAY BID ON ANY COMBINATION OF PARKS/LINE ITEMS. PREBID MEETINGS WILL BE HELD FOR ALGONAC, BAY CITY, AND STERLING STATE PARKS. NO PRE-BID MEETING WILL BE HELD FOR THE OTHER 14 PARKS, BUT QUESTIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED VIA EMAIL PRIOR TO BIDDING. VENDERS DO NOT NEED TO ATTEND IN-PERSON PREBIDS TO BID ON REMAINING 14 PARKS. PROSPECTIVE BIDDERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO VISIT THESE PARKS ON THEIR OWN PRIOR TO BIDDING. GIS DATA IS PROVIDED VIA WEB LINK WITHIN THIS DOCUMENT. GPS DATA WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. THE PROJECT MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN AUGUST 15, 2022 AND SEPTEMBER 28, 2022. THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE THE PRESENCE OF NON-NATIVE PHRAGMITES IN THE DESIGNATED AREAS OF ALGONAC STATE PARK, BALD MOUNTAIN RECREATION AREA, BAY CITY SP, BELLE ISLE PARK, BRIGHTON RA, EAST TAWAS HARBOR, GRAND MERE SP, HOLLY RA, ISLAND LAKE RA, LAKE PORT SP, LUDINGTON SP, MILLIKIN SP, MUSKEGON SP, SEVEN LAKES SP, STERLING SP, WARREN DUNES SP AND WILDERNESS SP, THEREBY FURTHER FAVORING THE PRESENCE OF NATIVE VEGETATION. NOTE THAT THERE IS NATIVE PHRAGMITES AT SEVERAL OF THESE PARKS THAT WILL BE EXCLUDED FROM TREATMENT. THE TREATMENT WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY APPLYING HERBICIDE TO THESE TARGETED PLANTS WITHIN DESIGNATED TREATMENT AREAS, OR WITHIN DESIGNATED POINT LOCATIONS THAT REPRESENT SPECIFIC AREAS.

XGLAUCA), FROGBIT (HYDROCHARIS MORSUS-RANAE), KNOTWEED (REYNOUTRIA JAPONICA, REYNOUTRIA SACHALINENSIS AND THEIR HYBRID REYNOUTRIA BOHEMICA), AND COASTAL OCCURRING LYME GRASS (LEYMUS ARENARIUS) AT 17 STATE PARKS. LARGE PORTIONS OF THESE PARKS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING RESTORED TO NATIVE LAKEPLAIN PRAIRIE, GREAT LAKES MARSH AND SHORELINE. THE LANDSCAPES WILL BE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE NATURAL WETLANDS THAT WERE COMMON ALONG THE GREAT LAKES SHORELINE PRIOR TO WIDESPREAD EUROPEAN SETTLEMENT. THE GENERAL GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO CONTROL NON-NATIVE PHRAGMITES IN TARGETED AREAS OF THESE STATE PARKS. IN MOST OF THESE PARKS THIS IS A FOLLOW-UP AFTER ONE TO SEVERAL YEARS OF TREATMENTS. AT A FEW LOCATIONS IT WILL BE THE FIRST TREATMENT. THIS WORK WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY APPLYING HERBICIDE TO THESE PLANTS USING GROUND-BASED APPLICATION TECHNIQUES (I.E., NOT A HELICOPTER OR AIRPLANE), BY A COMBINATION OF FOLIAR SPRAYING AND HAND-SWIPING HERBICIDE ONTO INDIVIDUAL PLANTS. THE WORK WILL BE BID AS LUMP SUM PRICES FOR EACH PARK WITH ONE EXCEPTION AT BAY CITY STATE RECREATION AREA WHERE THERE WILL BE TWO LINE ITEMS. BIDDERS MAY BID ON ANY COMBINATION OF PARKS/LINE ITEMS. PREBID MEETINGS WILL BE HELD FOR ALGONAC, BAY CITY, AND STERLING STATE PARKS. NO PRE-BID MEETING WILL BE HELD FOR THE OTHER 14 PARKS, BUT QUESTIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED VIA EMAIL PRIOR TO BIDDING. VENDERS DO NOT NEED TO ATTEND IN-PERSON PREBIDS TO BID ON REMAINING 14 PARKS. PROSPECTIVE BIDDERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO VISIT THESE PARKS ON THEIR OWN PRIOR TO BIDDING. GIS DATA IS PROVIDED VIA WEB LINK WITHIN THIS DOCUMENT. GPS DATA WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. THE PROJECT MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN AUGUST 15, 2022 AND SEPTEMBER 28, 2022. THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE THE PRESENCE OF NON-NATIVE PHRAGMITES IN THE DESIGNATED AREAS OF ALGONAC STATE PARK, BALD MOUNTAIN RECREATION AREA, BAY CITY SP, BELLE ISLE PARK, BRIGHTON RA, EAST TAWAS HARBOR, GRAND MERE SP, HOLLY RA, ISLAND LAKE RA, LAKE PORT SP, LUDINGTON SP, MILLIKIN SP, MUSKEGON SP, SEVEN LAKES SP, STERLING SP, WARREN DUNES SP AND WILDERNESS SP, THEREBY FURTHER FAVORING THE PRESENCE OF NATIVE VEGETATION. NOTE THAT THERE IS NATIVE PHRAGMITES AT SEVERAL OF THESE PARKS THAT WILL BE EXCLUDED FROM TREATMENT. THE TREATMENT WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY APPLYING HERBICIDE TO THESE TARGETED PLANTS WITHIN DESIGNATED TREATMENT AREAS, OR WITHIN DESIGNATED POINT LOCATIONS THAT REPRESENT SPECIFIC AREAS. CONTACT: BOB CLANCY [email protected] 517-202-6751 THE KNAPWEED AND SWEET CLOVER TREATMENTS MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN JUNE 30 AND AUGUST 31, WITH THE SECOND TREATMENTS OF REED CANARY GRASS COMPLETED BY SEPT 16, 2022.

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 REED CANARY GRASS WITHIN CHEBOYGAN STATE PARK AT THE MAPPED LOCATIONS. CONTACT: BOB CLANCY [email protected] 517-202-6751 17. THE MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES (DNR), PARKS & RECREATION DIVISION, STEWARDSHIP UNIT IS SEEKING BIDS FOR CONTROL OF THE INVASIVE WETLAND PLANTS PHRAGMITES (PHRAGMITES AUSTRALIS), PURPLE LOOSTRIFE (LYTHRUM SALICARIA), FLOWERING RUSH (BUTOMUS UMBELLATUS), REED CANARY GRASS (PHALARIS ARUNDINACEA), NON-NATIVE CAT-TAIL (TYPHA ANGUSTIFOLIA AND T. XGLAUCA), FROGBIT (HYDROCHARIS MORSUS-RANAE), KNOTWEED (REYNOUTRIA JAPONICA, REYNOUTRIA SACHALINENSIS AND THEIR HYBRID REYNOUTRIA BOHEMICA), AND COASTAL OCCURRING LYME GRASS (LEYMUS ARENARIUS) AT 17 STATE PARKS. LARGE PORTIONS OF THESE PARKS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING RESTORED TO NATIVE LAKEPLAIN PRAIRIE, GREAT LAKES MARSH AND SHORELINE. THE LANDSCAPES WILL BE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE NATURAL WETLANDS THAT WERE COMMON ALONG THE GREAT LAKES SHORELINE PRIOR TO WIDESPREAD EUROPEAN SETTLEMENT. THE GENERAL GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO CONTROL NON-NATIVE PHRAGMITES IN TARGETED AREAS OF THESE STATE PARKS. IN MOST OF THESE PARKS THIS IS A FOLLOW-UP AFTER ONE TO SEVERAL YEARS OF TREATMENTS. AT A FEW LOCATIONS IT WILL BE THE FIRST TREATMENT. THIS WORK WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY APPLYING HERBICIDE TO THESE PLANTS USING GROUND-BASED APPLICATION TECHNIQUES (I.E., NOT A HELICOPTER OR AIRPLANE), BY A COMBINATION OF FOLIAR SPRAYING AND HAND-SWIPING HERBICIDE ONTO INDIVIDUAL PLANTS. THE WORK WILL BE BID AS LUMP SUM PRICES FOR EACH PARK WITH ONE EXCEPTION AT BAY CITY STATE RECREATION AREA WHERE THERE WILL BE TWO LINE ITEMS. BIDDERS MAY BID ON ANY COMBINATION OF PARKS/LINE ITEMS. PREBID MEETINGS WILL BE HELD FOR ALGONAC, BAY CITY, AND STERLING STATE PARKS. NO PRE-BID MEETING WILL BE HELD FOR THE OTHER 14 PARKS, BUT QUESTIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED VIA EMAIL PRIOR TO BIDDING. VENDERS DO NOT NEED TO ATTEND IN-PERSON PREBIDS TO BID ON REMAINING 14 PARKS. PROSPECTIVE BIDDERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO VISIT THESE PARKS ON THEIR OWN PRIOR TO BIDDING. GIS DATA IS PROVIDED VIA WEB LINK WITHIN THIS DOCUMENT. GPS DATA WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. THE PROJECT MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN AUGUST 15, 2022 AND SEPTEMBER 28, 2022. THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE THE PRESENCE OF NON-NATIVE PHRAGMITES IN THE DESIGNATED AREAS OF ALGONAC STATE PARK, BALD MOUNTAIN RECREATION AREA, BAY CITY SP, BELLE ISLE PARK, BRIGHTON RA, EAST TAWAS HARBOR, GRAND MERE SP, HOLLY RA, ISLAND LAKE RA, LAKE PORT SP, LUDINGTON SP, MILLIKIN SP, MUSKEGON SP, SEVEN LAKES SP, STERLING SP, WARREN DUNES SP AND WILDERNESS SP, THEREBY FURTHER FAVORING THE PRESENCE OF NATIVE VEGETATION. NOTE THAT THERE IS NATIVE PHRAGMITES AT SEVERAL OF THESE PARKS THAT WILL BE EXCLUDED FROM TREATMENT. THE TREATMENT WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY APPLYING HERBICIDE TO THESE TARGETED PLANTS WITHIN DESIGNATED TREATMENT AREAS, OR WITHIN DESIGNATED POINT LOCATIONS THAT REPRESENT SPECIFIC AREAS. CONTACT: BOB CLANCY [email protected] 517-202-6751 THE KNAPWEED AND SWEET CLOVER TREATMENTS MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN JUNE 30 AND AUGUST 31, WITH THE SECOND TREATMENTS OF REED CANARY GRASS COMPLETED BY SEPT 16, 2022. TWO COMPLETE TREATMENTS OF ALL ZONES AND POINTS OF ALL THREE SPECIES ARE REQUIRED.
