    Description

    Period of the Contract: Date of Contract - March 31, 2026

    The Objective of the Work is to obtain the service of a qualified contractor with the expertise and resources to utilize goats for targeted browsing to reduce the cover and distribution of invasive vegetative species (specifically Common Tansy and Ox-eye Daisy) within the Meanook NWA. Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) staff will assess the results of the reports to document the effectiveness of goats to control weeds like ox-eye daisy and common tansy through a comparison of treatment and control fields and will guide ECCC’s decisions on continuing or terminating this method of invasive species control in the future. In 2022 there was a pilot goat grazing contract completed. The intent of this project would be to continue a similar grazing program during the summer months for each year of the Contract, resulting in a cumulative three years of targeted browsing, although not consecutive.

    Contract duration

    The estimated contract period will be 22 month(s), with a proposed start date of 2024/06/01.
