This project involves manual and mechanical mastication of mountain laurel and other undesirable species under 6 inches DBH within designated areas of the Allegheny National Forest. Vegetation density varies, requiring contractors to assess on‑the‑ground conditions to determine where mechanized equipment can be used versus areas requiring manual treatment, such as intermittent stream buffers, dry drainages, and locations inaccessible to machinery. All treatment areas are reachable from forest roads unless an alternate route is approved in writing by the COR. Virtual unit boundaries are provided on georeferenced PDF maps, with shapefiles available upon request. Units will be marked with orange “2026 Mastication” tags that contractors must locate, initial, and date prior to beginning work to confirm the correct unit. Please refer to the attachments for additional details."
