The contractor will provide recreation site maintenance for: 51sites, that will comprise of 445 individual maintenance visits per season. The initial pre-season site visit will prioritize which sites make up the 445 visits for the season. Not every site may receive regular site visits during the season, some site may require consecutive visits to conduct maintenance to achieve the set standard and that extra time may detract from other scheduled site visits, however the total number of site visits will remain at 445. Site visits will provide basic site maintenance and possibly more intense works requiring Hazard tree assessment & small, along with machines (mini excavators, skid steer, dump trailers etc.) to complete the tasks. Recreation Sites are identified in the Schedule C Site Maintenance Schedule RC272730001.  The Contractor may be requested, at the Province’s discretion and upon mutual agreement, to provide additional services at other Recreation Sites within the Cascades District
