Consisting of blading (811) and restore drainage function (839). Additionally, Los Pinos Road and Los Pinos Lookout, 2.56 miles, currently is a maintenance level 2 road that is a severely degraded chip seal surface that needs to be pulverized and bladed to bring it back to the correct maintenance level. The existing drainage features (rolling dips, lead off ditches) are weathered and the Lead off Ditches are filled with sediment (fines) that will need to be pulled out and re-distributed on the road. They will need to be re-established or re-shaped to get the road to drain in the best possible way. The existing roads are not in good condition and are rutted and rocky. A typical motor grader will not be acceptable due to the extremely rocky areas. All proposed work must be estimated using a bulldozer and the contractor will be expected to put an honest effort into repairing rocky areas and not lifting the blade. There will be some sensitive areas that lifting the blade will be required and the mileage will not be deducted. This contract provides for the equipment, labor, materials, services and permits necessary to perform work ordered by the Government, in compliance with its terms, specifications, drawings and provisions, for pulverization and road reconditioning per FP-24 and 811, 839 specifications. 2.0 Background The Forest requires routine maintenance on 13.59 miles of roadway to address erosion, restore surface integrity, and ensure proper drainage performance. Additionally, 2.56 miles of existing chip-seal roadway must be pulverized and reconstructed to return the segment to the appropriate maintenance standard. 3.0 Location This project is in the Corral Canyon Recreation Area of the Descanso Ranger District of the Cleveland National Forest. See attached Vicinity Map and Work Location Map 4.0 Estimated Start Date / Period of Performance Contract time is 90 days from the issuance of the “Notice to Proceed”.
