Description
The Ministry of Forests is looking to complete a wildfire risk reduction (WRR) treatment adjacent to the Williams Lake community located near Soda Creek Road to meet specific wildfire behaviour objectives. This area was identified and prioritized in the Williams Lake and Area Community Wildfire Protection Plan. The contract is expected to commence in Summer/Fall 2024. Treatment should be completed by March 20, 2025, with the potential of “option to renew” to complete further treatment for IFB-29 in the 2025/2026 fiscal year. The project will be for 27.7 hectares of hand treatment. The services required for this project include but are not limited to, understory thinning, pruning of reserve trees, surface fuel clean-up, and pile and debris disposal.
In the event of extreme weather or climate limitations (e.g., snow-free/frozen ground, high/low snowpack, warm and wet conditions, poor venting indices) debris disposal can be delayed until conditions are suitable.
Further details as to the scope of this opportunity and the requirements can be found within this RFP.
