Cave Creek/Animas Fence
Cave Creek/Animas Fence - This contract is to acquire services for approximately 1.25 miles of fence reconstruction between Cave Creek/Animas Pastures. The fence is split into two approximately equal sections 1 mile apart from one another. The fence shall meet Forest Service standards and specifications as outlined in this document. Designated gate locations will be identified for wire gate or pipe gate installation. The fence right of way will be identified by the existing fence and will be cleared eight foot on each side of the fence for a sixteen foot right of way. The old existing fence material (barbed wire, smooth wire, t-posts, and brace posts) that is to be replaced shall be removed and properly disposed of by the contractor completing the work on the ground. Off road travel shall be assessed and authorized on a case-by-case basis by COR and District Ranger. Due to topography and location, more brace posts than usual may be required and packing of materials to and from the job site will be required. The majority of fence material will be Government furnished material. Wood stays will not be furnished. Approximately ¾ miles of the fence is within the Aldo Leopold Wilderness Area. No motorized or wheeled equipment shall be allowed within the Wilderness Area.
