E f-�- 1%-�-ohn President MMONAqE0UNTY ATTORNEY ED AS To FOR Date: EXHIBIT A SCOPE OF SERVICES REMOVAL of INVASIVE EXOTIC PLANTS FROM MONROE COUNTY CONSERVATION LANDS PROJECT HISTORY Monroe County currently owns or manages approximately 2,000 acres of conservation lands throughout the Keys. Monroe County has received a grant from the Florida Fish Wildlife Conservation Commission, Invasive Plant Management section, in the amount of $50,000 for contract labor for the removal of invasive exotic plants on parcels selected by the Monroe County Land Steward. Work must be completed by May 14, 2011. 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 (the majority of the sites are within the Lower Keys area): Upper Keys: Key Largo; Tavernier Lower Keys: Sugarloaf Keys; Cudjoe Key; su m merland Key; Ramrod fey; Torch Keys; Big Fine Key Most individual parcels are only 0.1 acres in size, but many are contiguous and combine to form much lamer 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 project consists of the physical removal of all Category I and Il 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 I eadtree 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. Most of the sites include a mixture of native vegetation and invasive exotic vegetation. The native vegetation must not be disturbed during the invasive exotic removal. The majority of the sites will be located in uplands, but a few may be adjacent to wetlands (including mangroves). Heavy equipment may not be used in wetlands and mulch may not be placed in wetlands. Most sites are within neighborhoods and are easily accessed from adjacent roads. Every invasive exotic species listed by Florida EPPC will be either hand -pulled or cut down and treated with appropriate herbicide. Exotic vegetation must be removed and cannot be 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 removal 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 wi I l 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 lour -pressure spray to minimize drift and non -target damage. A dye shall be used to facilitate identification of treated sterns. An appropriate herbicide shall be applied within one (1) minute of stump preparation. Invasive exotic plant species shall be treated with herbicide as follows; Target Species Treatment Method Asiatic colubrina 0% Garlon 3A applied to cut surface immediately after cut (Colubrina estatiee or 20% Garlon 4 applied to stump's cut surface and sides Australian pine 50% Garlon 3A applied to cut surface immediately after cut (Casuarina q or 0% Garlon 4 applied to stump's cut surface and sides Beach naupaka 50% Garlon 3A applied to cut surface immediately after cut caevo a sericee or 10% Garlon 4 applied to stum $s cut surface and sides Brazilian pepper 50% Marlon 3A applied to cut surface immediately after cut (Schinus terebinthifolius) or 10-15% Garlon 4 applied to stump's cut surface and sides Lead tree 0% Garlon 4 applied to stump's cut surface and sides (Leucaena {eucoci hale Seaside mahoe 50% Garlon 3A applied to cut surface immediatel upon Thes esre a{r ea cuffing All mature (brown) lead tree (Leucaena leucocephala) seeds will be bagged and left on the site for disposal by the County. Bowstring hemp (Sanseviefia h acinthoides) must be physically removed, ensuring that the entire root has been removed. Resulting 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 covering remaining native vegetation. Logs that are too large for the chipper must be cut into 4 ft lengths and neatly 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 personal 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, precautionary, 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. The project is complete when the total cost per hour reaches $50,000 or on May 149 2011, whichever occurs first. All herbicide treatments shall be at least 95% effective in preventing re -sprout of treated plants. if 95% kill rate is not achieved for any area of the project after two (2) months past initial project completion; one additional treatment of the exotic plants in the problem area small be the responsibility of the Contractor at no additional cost to the County. The contractor shall at all times provide an on -site ground crew supervisor that is certified by the Florida Department of Agricultural and consumer Services and in good standing with that Department, as part of the work force. Ground crew supervisors will be responsible for: 1) coordination with the Monroe county Land Steward on a daily 1 weekly basis; 2) all control activities and safety on project sites; ) assuring that all crews are knowledgeable of, and remain within property and treatment boundaries; 4) assuring herbicide labels and Material safety Data Sheets (MSDS)are on site; ) avoiding damage to native vegetation and wildlife; and 6) strict adherence to all herbicide label application, precautionary, and safety statements. Ground crew supervisors shall be certified by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services in the Natural Areas, Forestry, Right -of -Way or Aquatics category. The county reserves the right to disqualify prospective bidders who have violations of the Rules of Chapter c-0, F.A. . , or other state or federal laws or regulations related to pesticide use or aquatic plant control resolved by mediation, Consent order, or fine within the two (2) previous years. Crew supervisors must meet with county staff on a regular basis to discuss the progress of the project and to determine priority areas for treatment. The contractor shall complete "Daily Progress Reports for Invasive plant Control" and submit the completed forms to the County every two weeks. The Monroe county Land Steward will submit permit applications for the proposed exotic removals, however the Contractor is required to pick up the permit from the Monroe county Building Department and keep the permit with the crew while working on -site. The contractor suet hold a valid Monroe county occupational license and a Monroe county certificate of Competency for landscaping. Additional plant treatment or removal and nonplant debris removal may be added to the project by mutual agreement as field conditions warrant and funds permit. Such agreements for additional work shall be made in writing and agreed to by signature of both parties. According to the ounty's grant agreement with Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission, contractors working on invasive exotic removal projects must adhere to the following protocol: Mandatory decontamination protocols must be followed for vehicles and equipment prior to entering Monroe county from areas outside of the county. When moving equipment from site to site within Monroe county, decontamination requirements will be at the discretion of the county and will be dependent upon the exotic species that were treated at the previous site and on the nature of the treatment sites. If decontamination is required by the county then the contractor must utilize a designated decontamination site within Monroe county, The county shall supply the contractor with a list of designated decontamination sites if necessary. Decontamination protocols: All equipment including but not limited to vehicles, trailer, ATVs, and chippers must be cleaned with a pressure washer (at a county approved facility) . Decontamination protocols include spraying down all equipment surfaces including the undercarriage and tires to insure that mud, vegetative debris and other debris is not transported from the previous treatment site. special attention will be paid to equipment that has worked at sites where Lygodi um# c og o n grass and other exotics specific to the mainland were treated to prevent the spread of these species into Monroe County. Equipment such as chain saws, loppers, etc. used for cut stump treatment must be wiped down and cleaned so that they are free of debris. Prior to the commencement of an invasive species removal project, the contractor and the county Land steward shall discuss the necessity for a decontamination plan. If the County requires a plan, then the contractor shall submit a brief decontamination plan in writing, to the county for approval. The decontamination plan shall identity specific decontamination procedures and decontamination sites. Decontamination protocols may vary depending upon the nature of the treatment site,, type of treatment conducted at the site, and the exotic species that were treated. Failure to comply with decontamination protocols constitutes reason for contract cancellation and dismissal of the contractor. While notice to proceed will be issued as soon as possible after the contract is final, the project timeframe may be adjusted depending on seasonal conditions. All work must be completed by May 14, 2011. RFP for Contractor Services, Removal of Invasive Exotic Plants, Monroe Co.
