IDL ITB 23-213X 1 of 154 GROUND HERBICIDE APPLICATION mailto:pshandera@idl.idaho.gov http://www.idl.idaho.gov/ mailto:PurchasingITB@idl.idaho.gov IDAHO DEPARTMENT OF LANDS GENERAL INFORMATION ADDENDA It will be the respondent’s responsibility to check for any addenda prior to submitting a bid. In the event it becomes necessary to revise any part of the solicitation documents, addenda will be made available. Information given to a respondent will be available to all other respondents if such information is necessary for purposes of submitting a bid or if failure to give such information would be prejudicial to uninformed respondents. BURDEN OF PROOF ANY VARIATIONS of brand names or deviations from the specifications MUST BE CLEARLY STATED. It shall be the responsibility and burden of the submitting vendor to furnish the State WITH ITS ORIGINAL SUBMISSION sufficient data to determine if the goods or services offered conform to the specifications. ORAL INFORMATION The State will not be responsible for any verbal or oral information regarding this solicitation. DISQUALIFICATION AND AWARD INFORMATION The state reserves the right to make reasonable inquiry to determine the responsibility of a contractor. Such requests may include but not be limited to financial statements, credit ratings, statements of experience and past performance, references, etc. Successful contractors must show to the satisfaction of the Idaho Department of Lands that they have sufficient equipment and work crews to complete the work contracted by the time specified. The unreasonable failure of a contractor to promptly supply information in connection with such a request is reason for disqualification. Except as otherwise provided by law, information furnished by the contractor pursuant to this provision may not be disclosed outside the Idaho Department of Lands without prior written consent of the Contractor. Disqualification of a high-ranking contractor may be pursued when their reputation, experience or references are such as to create a doubt about satisfactory job completion or if the bid submitted is considerably below Department estimates and the other bids. The purchasing agent will contact the contractor and request that they disqualify themselves by withdrawing in writing. If the contractor refuses to withdraw, the purchasing agent may notify the contractor in writing or email that the Department will not offer the contractor a contract and proceed with an award to the next responsible bidder. PARTNERSHIPS Bidders responding as partners must furnish the Idaho Department of Lands the name of the partnership, names of the partners, and the partnership's federal taxpayer ID number. All payments will be made to the partnership. INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICES REPORTING REQUIREMENT IDL ITB 23-213X 2 of 154 GROUND HERBICIDE APPLICATION IRS rules and regulations require employers to submit a miscellaneous income form (IRS form 1099) for all contractual persons who receive $600 or more in a calendar year. Incorporated firms are exempt from this reporting requirement. The contractor's taxpayer identification number (Social Security or employer number) must be listed on the signature page of the contract. PUBLIC RECORDS The Idaho Public Records Law, Idaho Code Sections 74-101 through 74-126, allows the open inspection and copying of public records. Public records include any writing containing information relating to the conduct or administration of the public's business prepared, owned, used, or retained by a state or local agency regardless of the physical form or character. ALL, OR MOST (there are exceptions), OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN YOUR RESPONSE TO THE STATE'S SOLICITATION WILL BE A PUBLIC RECORD SUBJECT TO DISCLOSURE UNDER THE PUBLIC RECORDS LAW. WORKERS COMPENSATION INSURANCE All persons working for the State under any contract of hire, expressed or implied, must be covered by worker’s compensation insurance. (Reference Title 72, Idaho Code). Any contractor who hires employees to accomplish the contracted work must provide a certificate of worker’s compensation insurance. The Department of Lands may pay worker’s compensation insurance premiums on behalf of the contractor if the contractor has no employees and, except for the provisions in this contract, is not otherwise required to carry worker’s compensation insurance. The contractor must indicate they do not carry worker’s compensation by checking the appropriate statement on the response form. The cost of the premium will be tallied in the bid evaluation so that a contractor paying worker’s compensation premiums is not penalized. In no event will the premium be paid to the contractor. Example: Contractor #1 bid total = $8,000.00 Contractor does not provide worker’s compensation Contractor #2 bid total = $9,000.00 Contractor provides worker’s compensation The following procedure will be used to evaluate the bids without worker’s compensation. (EXAMPLE – ALL RATES ARE EXAMPLES ONLY) Bids times applicable worker’s compensation rate times current department of Lands’ percentage reduction rate added to bid. Contract #1 Worker’s Class Rate Reduction Rate Premium Amt $8,000.00 x rate $31.00 per/100 x 67.5 = $1,674.00 Plus bid amount +8,000.00 Total bid price $9,674.00 Contract #2 would be the successful respondent and furnish a certificate to the Idaho Department of Lands. PREFERENCES Section 67-2349, Idaho Code, requires application of a preference in determining which contractor submitted the lowest responsible bid. If the contractor who submitted the lowest bid is domiciled in a state which has a preference law that penalizes Idaho domiciled IDL ITB 23-213X 3 of 154 GROUND HERBICIDE APPLICATION contractors, then the State must apply a preference. The penalty applied to out-of-state contractors competing against Idaho contractors is determined by the penalty applied by the contractor’s domiciliary state to its out-of-state contractors. In determining domicile, the following “rule of thumb” will be used: Corporations – the state in which the corporation is chartered or incorporated; Sole proprietor or partnership – the state in which the permanent headquarters of the business is located. A contractor domiciled outside the boundaries of the state of Idaho may be considered as an Idaho domiciled contractor provided that there exists for a period of one year preceding the date of the bid a significant Idaho economic presence as defined herein. A significant Idaho economic presence shall consist of the following: (a) That the contractor maintains in Idaho fully staffed offices, or fully staffed sales offices or divisions, or fully staffed sales outlets, or manufacturing facilities, or warehouses or other necessary related property; and (b) if a corporation, that it be registered and licensed to do business in the state of Idaho with the Office of the Secretary of State. REJECTION OF BIDS AND CANCELLATION OF SOLICITATION Prior to the issuance of a contract, the State shall have the right to accept or reject all or any part of a bid when: (i) it is in the best interests of the State of Idaho; (ii) the bid does not meet the minimum specifications; (iii) the bid is not the lowest responsible bid; (iv) a finding is made based upon available evidence that a respondent is not responsible or is otherwise incapable of meeting specifications or providing an assurance of ability to fulfill contract requirements; or (v) the item offered deviates to a major degree from the bid specifications, as determined by the State (minor deviations, as determined by the State, may be accepted as substantially meeting the bid requirements of the State of Idaho). Deviations will be considered major when such deviations appear to frustrate the competitive solicitation process or provide a respondent an unfair advantage. Prior to the issuance of a contract, the State shall have the right to reject all bids or to cancel a solicitation or request for bids. Cancellation may be for reasons that include but are not limited to: (i) inadequate or ambiguous specifications; (ii) specifications have been revised; (iii) property is no longer required; (iv) there is a change in requirements; (v) all bids are deemed unreasonable or sufficient funds are not available; (vi) bids were not independently arrived at or were submitted in bad faith; (vii) it is determined that all requirements of the solicitation process were not met; (viii) insufficient competition; or (ix) it is in the best interests of the state of Idaho. AWARD PROCEDURES For contracts with a total value of $100,000 or less, the State will email all respondents within five (5) business days following the solicitation closure of its intent to award a contract(s) and the party(ies) to whom the contract(s) will be awarded and will then email a contract award to the successful respondent(s). For contracts with a total value of more than $100,000, the State will notify all respondents within five (5) business days following the solicitation closure, by mail and/or email, of its intent to award a contract and the party(ies) to whom the contract will be awarded. After elapse of the five (5) day appeal period, if no appeals are received, the State will award a contract to the successful respondent(s). Respondents to whom a contract has been awarded will have fourteen (14) calendar days from the mailing date of the award notice to return to the State a signed copy of the contract along with the required certificates of insurance. If the State does not receive IDL ITB 23-213X 4 of 154 GROUND HERBICIDE APPLICATION such documents within the specified time period, the State may declare, at its sole discretion, that all respondent’s rights to the contract are forfeited, and the State may proceed without further delay or notice to award the contract to the next low respondent.

Dr aft IDL ITB 23-213X 13 of 154 GROUND HERBICIDE APPLICATION c.

See the attached maps for specific unit locations. All acreage is net horizontal as determined by GIS. UNIT HISTORY & TREATMENT OBJECTIVES: Unit 1 (154 acres) – Release and Hack and Squirt): This unit was part of the Molly Gasp timber sale and harvested using an overstory removal harvest method in 2018. Post-sale inspection revealed less than desirable regeneration, and the unit was slashed in the summer of 2020, and piled in the summer of 2021. The unit has now successfully regenerated naturally. Treatment will include a release spray and hack and squirt application with the goal of eliminating and/or reducing competing vegetation, which will increase seedling survival and growth rates. The primary target for the herbicide treatment is aspen and the multitude of native and non-native weed species that occupy a site following a timber harvest. Unit 2 (92 acres - Release): This unit was part of the Buggy Bear timber sale and harvested using a seedtree harvest method in 2017. The stand has regenerated naturally. Treatment will include a release spray application with the goal of eliminating and/or reducing competing vegetation, which will increase seedling survival and growth rates. The primary target for the herbicide treatment, oceanspray, maple and the multitude of native and non- native weed species that occupy a site following a timber harvest. Unit 3 (24acres – Site prep): This unit was part of the Lee Lake timber sale and harvested using a seedtree harvest method in 2020/2021. Treatment will include a broadcast spray application with the goal of eliminating and/or reducing competing vegetation, which will prepare the site for planted seedlings, and increase planted seedling survival and growth rates. This unit will be planted in the spring of 2023. The primary target for the herbicide treatment is ninebark, oceanspray, maple and the multitude of native and non-native weed species that occupy a site following a timber harvest. Unit 4 (41 acres – Directed): This unit was part of the Colonel Camel timber sale and harvested using an overstory removal harvest method in 2020/2021. Treatment will include a directed spray application with the goal of eliminating and/or reducing competing vegetation, which will prepare the site for planted seedlings, and increase planted seedling survival and growth rates. The primary target for the herbicide treatment is maple and alder and the multitude of native and non-native weed species that occupy a site following a timber harvest. IDL ITB 23-213X 26 of 154 GROUND HERBICIDE APPLICATION Unit 5 (31 acres – Site prep): This unit was part of the Colonel Camel timber sale and harvested in 2020/2021. Treatment will include a broadcast spray application with the goal of eliminating and/or reducing competing vegetation, which will increase seedling survival and growth rates. The primary target for the herbicide treatment is maple and alder and the multitude of native and non-native weed species that occupy a site following a timber harvest. Unit 6 (32 acres – Hack and Squirt): This unit is part of the Priest Lake Area’s FY 2023 sales plan as part of the Trapper Falls timber sale. Treatment will include a hack and squirt treatment with the goal of eliminating and/or reducing aspen. The purpose of treating the site before harvest is to reduce the amount of aspen root shoots that may sprout after the hack and squirt treatment. The primary target for the herbicide treatment is aspen. Overall Project Objectives: This project will control competing vegetation and site preparation for planted seedlings. The backpack herbicide broadcast and release spray application in Units 1, 2, 3, and 5 will focus on covering the ground for soil active ingredients and vegetation for foliar active ingredients. The backpack herbicide directed spray application in Unit 4 will focus on covering the ground for soil active ingredients and vegetation for foliar active ingredients, while avoiding herbicide contact with established regeneration. The hack and squirt application in Unit 1 & 6 will be applied to hardwoods greater than 4” diameter. One hack (cut / slot) per inch of diameter will be made into the cambium on hardwoods. Immediately apply the chemical mixture into the hack with squirt bottle or other equivalent applicator. IDL will furnish the herbicide. An adequate water supply may not be available within each project area. Water is available for use at the Idaho Department of Lands office in Coolin, Idaho. The herbicide shall be batch mixed by the Contractor prior to the scheduled start of the days spraying and will comply with all label requirements. In most cases, the chemical mixing will be done on the morning of the spray. Mixed material must be sprayed within 72 hours. The treatment area boundaries will follow roads and/or will be flagged with ribbon and/or marked with red bands of paint on trees facing into the spray area.

Units 2 and 3 are located approximately 4 air miles South of Rose Lake, ID. See attached maps for actual locations. All acreage is net horizontal as determined by GIS and GPS. UNIT HISTORY & TREATMENT OBJECTIVES: Unit 1 – Eagle (50 Acres) was harvested in the summer of 2021 with the Eagle Face timber sale (TS-22-4324). This unit has a moderate to heavy slash load and is approximately 60-70% slope. Access is provided via the Canary Creek Mainhaul off of Highway 3. Unit 2 – Canary (33 Acres) was harvested with the Black Latour timber sale (TS-22-4364) during the winter of 2021. There is a light slash loading and slopes averaging 40-50%. This unit is an understocked overstory removal unit with some seedlings present. Only portions of the original harvest unit are being sprayed where stocking levels are considered poor. Access is provided via the Canary Creek Mainhaul off of Highway 3. Unit 3 – Latour (17 Acres) was harvested in the summer of 2020 with the Black Latour timber sale (TS-22-4364). This unit has a moderate slash loading and slopes average 40-50%. Access is provided via gated spur roads. In all units, merchantable trees were whole tree yarded and limbing, topping and longbutting were completed at the landings. A variety of forb, woody brush and hardwood species are anticipated or present on these sites. Target species in all units are predominantly rocky mountain maple, ninebark and ocean spray. Utilizing an herbicide treatment throughout the project area will help control this vegetative competition prior to planting in the spring of 2023.
