Description

This project involves implementing reforestation treatments on wildfire-impacted areas that were previously free growing but suffered significant mortality due to recent wildfires. Planting is required to ensure timely re-establishment of forest cover, as natural regeneration may be insufficient or delayed. The work includes planting seedlings to restore forest productivity, maintain species composition, and support long-term recovery. Additionally, 100,000 fertilizer tea bags will be purchased and planted in select blocks to aid seedlings in areas with significant brush competition. The contract duration is estimated to be 10 months, including potential extensions.
