Monroe County has received a grant from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Invasive Plant Management, in the amount of $80,000 for contract labor for the removal of invasive exotic plants on parcelS selected by the Monroe County Land Steward. Work must be completed by April 15, 2008. PROJECT LOCATION Lands in this project area consist of public conservation lands located throughout the Florida Keys either owned or managed by Monroe County. Monroe County owns approximately 2,000 acres of scattered conservation lands throughout the Florida Keys. This project will target sites that have not already been treated in the Lower and Upper Keys identified below: Upper Keys: Lower K,eys: Key Largo; Tavernier Big Coppitt Key; Sugarloaf Keys; Cudjoe Key; Summerland Key; Ramrod Key; Torch Keys; Big Pine Key Most individual parcels are only 0.1 acres in size, but many are contiguous and combine to form much larger management units. The majority of the sites are located in neighborhoods, adjacent to residences and roads. Level of infestation varies by site, ranging from sparse exotics to dense stands of Brazilian pepper. SCOPE OF WORK The projl3ct consists of the physical removal of all Category I and II Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council (FLEPPC) listed species occurring on selected Monroe County conservation lands, followed by herbicide application and chipping of all resulting biomass (except as described below for bowstring hemp and leadtree seeds). The contractor will manage the project including the scheduling, subcontracting as necessary, labor, monitoring and reporting progress. The County will supply locations and maps of project sites. The success of the project depends on the thoroughness of invasive exotic removal. The County conservation lands contain a wide variety of exotics ranging from grasses to large trees. Different areas of the Keys have different species of concern but Brazilian pepper, Australian pine, Asiatic cOlubrina, lead tree, seaside mahoe, non-native scaevola and bowstring hemp are the most abundant. Every invasive exotic species listed by Florida EPPC will be either hand-pulled or cut Page 14 of 16 down and treated with appropriate herbicide. Exotic vegetation must be removed and cannot bl~ left standing (including Australian pines). A "Gyro-trac" or forestry machine may not be used for this project. Every effort shall be made to avoid damage to native vegetation and wildlife. The Contractor is responsible for the initial herbicide treatment and remclval of all the specified exotic species including trees, shrubs, vines, herbaceous plants and grasses regardless of the size or reproductive state of the plant. Each cut plant will be cut as low to the ground as possible. Cuts will be made level to the ground to minimize herbicide runoff prior to absorption. The herbicide will be applied using a low-pressure spray to minimize drift and non-target damage. A dye shall be used to f,acilitate identification of treated stems. An appropriate herbicide shall be applied within one (1) minute of stump preparation. Invasive exotic plant species shall be treated with herbicide as follows: Tar et S ecies Asiatic colubrina Co/ubrina asiatica Australian pine Casuarina s Beach naupaka Scaevola sericea Brazilian pepper Schinus t"r"binthi oiius Lead tree Leucaena leucoci hala Seaside mahoe Thes esia 0 u/nea Treatment Method 50% Garlon 3A applied to cut surface immediately after cut or 20% Garlon 4 a lied to stum 's cut surface and sides 50% Garlon 3A applied to cut surface immediately after cut or 20% Gar]on 4 a lied to sturn's cut surface and sides 50% Garlon 3A applied to cut surface immediately after cut or 10% Garlon 4 a lied to sturn's cut surface and sides 50% Garlon 3A applied to cut surface immediately after cut or 10-]5% Garlon 4 a lied to stum 's cut surface and sides 30% Gar]on 4 applied to stump's cut surface and sides 50% Garlon 3A applied to cut surface immediately upon cutting All mature (brown) lead tree (Leucaena leucocephala) seeds will be bagged and left on the site for disposal by the County. All bowstring hemp (Sansevieria hyacinthoides) must be dug out of the ground by hand, ensuring that the entire root has been removed. Resultin!~ plant material may either be bagged or neatly piled on site (adjacent to the road) for County pick up. All other vegetative debris will be chipped in place. On sites where the mulch is to be removed, as determined by the Monroe County Land Steward, the mulch will be neatly piled by the road for pickup by Monroe County Solid Waste. On sites where the mulch is to remain, the mulch must be spread neatly across the site without c:overing remaining native vegetation. Logs that are too large for the chipper must be stacked by the road for pickup by Monroe County Solid Waste. The Contractor will provide all necessary equipment to complete the project including hand tools, chainsaws, chippers, vehicles, bucket truck, sprayers, garbage bags and persona II protective equipment. The Contractor will also provide all materials for treatment (including herbicide and adjuvants) and ensure proper disposal of herbicide and adjuvant containers and will strictly adhere to all herbicide label application, precauti,)nary, and safety statements. The Contractor shall be paid according to the hourly rates established in the contract for each type of employee. No compensation shall be paid for travel time to and from the work site.
