1.0 General Summary of Work

The Coconino Na onal Forest seeks to implement remote sensing/geophysical survey to assist in mee ng its compliance responsibili es under federal law and regula on. The purpose of this contract is to perform geophysical survey u lizing ground-penetra ng radar (GPR) at a project unit covering up to five acres on the Coconino Na onal Forest, to iden fy subsurface disturbances and anomalies, and characterize their extent. Based on the available funds, addi onal units and/or acreage may be reduced or increased within the units and op ons at the government’s discre on. One base unit covering approximately two acres is proposed, and if funding allows two addi onal project units covering three acres may be exercised as op onal line items. See the table below for more details. Survey, report, and data deliverables for both the base units and op onal units are described in this contract Statement of Work. The survey results for the base unit and op onal units may be combined into a single report. If op onal units are awarded, comple on dates for fieldwork and reports may be adjusted based on Forest priori es.
Required work for this contract consists of geophysical survey u lizing GPR equipment, and results repor ng that includes geospa al data, maps, and raw data. Intensive geophysical survey of block areas will cover the areas described below at transects no more than 1 meter apart. The Contractor will provide a report documen ng the survey and its results. The Contractor will provide all digital survey data to the Coconino Na onal Forest as well as geospa al data forma ed for use with Environmental Systems Research Ins tute (ESRI) so ware. Addi onal contract work informa on is provided below. Schedules for the op onal units will be discussed at the me the op ons are exercised/awarded. The work schedule for the op onal units shall be proposed by the Contractor but will be planned to be completed to meet the Forest’s priori es and implementa on schedule.
