Project Description:

Scope of Work:

Purpose: UH Maui College is seeking the services from a contractor to reduce or
eliminate the feral chicken population on the University of Hawaii Maui
College (UHMC) – Kahului campus.

Term: 12-month service contract

The UHMC campus has been segregated into four quadrants (Attachment #1). In general,
the contractor shall trap and remove feral chickens in one quadrant
for approximately 3 months, then move to the second quadrant for approximately 3
months and so on, until all four quadrants have been completed. But the
3 month period and the areas of trapping may be altered on request by the college,
based on feral chicken concentration.

The contractor will set and monitor no less than 6 traps in the quadrant or directed
areas. Traps shall be “No Kill” traps and must be constructed of
metal and be able to be moved to strategic locations. Traps must be monitored daily,
and captured feral chickens must be humanely relocated daily. Foot
hooks and nets to remove feral chickens from roosting locations are allowable.

As much as possible, contractor’s employees should set traps during the off hours of
the college (college hours are 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, Mondays to Fridays), and traps
shall be placed in locations that are not visible by the general campus community.
Securing traps will be the responsibility of the contractor, and the
college will not be responsible for costs to replace or repair traps that are stolen
or damaged. Trapped feral chickens should be relocated before 7:30 am daily.

Relocation of feral chickens shall be handled in a humane method, such as
transporting to farm locations or other appropriate areas.

The contractor shall provide a bi-weekly report which provides the number of feral
chickens trapped and relocated with an update on the prognosis of the
remaining feral chicken population.
