DESIRED CONDITIONS Sample Clauses

DESIRED CONDITIONS. The following descriptions refer to the condition of the treatments areas after all treatments have been completed. The majority of the treatment areas will be Ponderosa Pine forests but some may occur in mixed conifer forests. Desired conditions are included for both forest types. The desired conditions are based on the existing Forest Plans and are consistent with those plans. The Kaibab, Coconino, and Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests are in the process of revising their Forest Plans. The Tonto National Forest is scheduled to start their revision in about 3 years. These revisions may result in a change to the desired conditions. If that occurs, the contract would be modified accordingly. Photos of representative desired conditions are included in appendix E. We will be conducting a pre-bid meeting in June (See Section L for details) to visit sites in both forest types that would show a range of conditions to be treated. Ranges of values presented in desired conditions account for the natural variation in the composition and structure of a forest. Desired conditions may differ within a vegetation type due to variability in soils, elevation, or aspect. It may also be desirable to have different desired conditions within a vegetation type, such as a lower density of vegetation in the wildland urban interface (WUI) than outside of the WUI to achieve the desired fire behavior near private property and human occupancy. Any variation from the general conditions described below will be clearly identified in a task order. After treatments, the Forest Service will determine if a contractor has met the desired conditions by visual methods of determining: Remaining trees per acre Amount of Coarse Woody Debris (see Appendix E for sample photos of coarse woody debris) Size and distribution of groups These descriptions apply at what we call a mid-scale, between 100 and 1,000 acres. This doesn’t mean that every acre meets the description below, but a treatment unit, or combination of treatment units, meets these conditions. The following figure graphically displays how groups of trees are envisioned to be arranged after treatment under this contract. Figure 1 – Desired spatial arrangement of leave groups Group 1 Group 2 Opening between drip line of outermost leave tree. Distance between groups will vary by task order. Group boundary, (drip line of outermost leave tree) Ponderosa Pine Leave group area, typically should range 1/4 to 3/4 acre, may range from a few trees ...
