Invasive Exotic Plant Elimination
The Suwannee River Water Management District is seeking bids for the eradication of Invasive Exotic plants on District-owned lands. Invasive exotic plants occur in some concentration on almost every parcel of land owned and managed by the Suwannee River Water Management District. Many of these plant populations are relatively small and are difficult to bid on an individual basis. In an effort to achieve effective treatment and reduce the time and expense of multiple site visits, the District is requesting bids based on hourly treatment rates. Once the contract is awarded, the Contractor will be given maps to several treatment sites.
