UC17-151C - TREE REMOVAL SERICES ALONG THE PROPOSED ASHOKAN RAIL TRAIL

“The purpose of this bid is to establish a price from a qualified firm (“Contractor”) to fell and dispose of marked trees (primarily dead and dying trees) along the County-owned Ulster & Delaware Railroad Corridor (“U&D Corridor”) as required by the Ulster County Planning Department (the “County”). The Contractor will provide all labor, equipment and materials required to fell and dispose of trees and limbs as required by the County and as stated in these specifications and the construction documents.  The purpose of this work is to remove trees that have encroached onto the existing railroad corridor and to remove ash and other trees which might pose a hazard to the future recreational trail to be constructed in 2018.  Tree removal will consist of felling and properly disposing of marked trees along the U&D Corridor on the north shore of the Ashokan Reservoir spanning from Milepost K10 (Basin Road in West Hurley) to Milepost K21.5 (Route 28A overpass in Boiceville).”
