FALL VIEWING OF PROPOSED RECOVERY PROJECTS--FSR 17 Paving

Due to anticipated snow conditions at the time of issue for these reforestation and related projects, the fall will be the only time that offerors will have the opportunity to see the proposed sites. There will be one scheduled trip with a technical Forest Service employee on October 30, 2009. If prospective offerors are unable to make the scheduled showing trip they may use the below travel directions to visit the site on their own time. There will be no additional scheduled showing trips nor will Forest Service employees accompany prospective offerors to project sites other than the one scheduled trip. Offerors are reminded that it is their responsibility to determine for themselves the actual site conditions and only by physical inspection, on-the-ground viewing can offerors assure themselves of the existing conditions. Maps will be available at the District offices. DIRECTIONS: The Forest Service 17 road project is located on the Blue Mountain Ranger District of the Malheur National Forest, about 37 miles South of John Day, Oregon. It can be accessed by turning south from John Day on US 395 for approximately 37 miles, and then turning East on Grant County Road 73, and continuing East on Road 73 for approximately 3 miles to the beginning of the project. MEETING TIMES: 9am FSR 17 on Friday, October 30, 2009. CONTRACT INFORMATION: Please contact Darren Lemon for any questions regarding this fall viewing.
