The site navigation utilizes arrow, enter, escape, and space bar key commands. Left and right arrows move across top level links and expand / close menus in sub levels. Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.
The goal of this project is to remove exotic and invasive woody species from a portion of Ray Lake Forest Preserve (Cuneo parcel). In total, the project area encompasses 45.4 acres of degraded woodland/savanna habitats, as well as fence row and field edge areas. The work of this project includes all labor, materials and equipment to clear understory/sub-canopy trees and shrubs, and selectively thin overstory trees. Some clearing areas are located near wetlands and roadways, special care must be taken to not adversely impact these areas. Work shall include mechanical and hand cutting (chain saws, hand saws, tracked skid-loaders, feller bunchers, etc.), brush disposal via brush pile burning or chipping (and removal of chipped material), selective wick herbicide application to cut stumps and follow-up wick foliar application of resprouts.
The Work shall be performed at the following Work Site:
