    GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF WORK:

    Task 1: Mechanized land clearing of approximately 22 acres parcel within refuge


    boundaries, adjacent to the Magüayo Community.

    there, equipment and trucks will travel on the service roads to project areas.
    1.2 Contractor will clear all debris vegetation designated within the polygon area on Laguna
    Cartagena NWR (approximately 22 acres).
    1.3 All mechanically removed vegetation needs to be cut between 3-5 feet in length to maximize
    load space in the truck. If trituration of vegetative material will be done, the contractor will
    use their own equipment and the material needs to be removed from the site and disposed off
    the refuge boundaries.

    Task 2: Removal of piles of vegetation debris resulting from Hurricane Fiona.

    2.1 Removal of approximately 6 piles of vegetation debris consisting of fallen trees and
    branches. (200 cubic yards)

    refuge boundaries. Contractor will be responsible of costs for the disposal of vegetative material
    outside of refuge boundaries.
    2.4 All debris vegetation needs to be cut between 3.5 feet in length to maximize load space on
    truck.

    Note:

    If trituration is permitted, no additional pollution abatement measures are needed to control


    particulate matters generated from the grinding process. The particle size generated from this
    operation is big enough that it settles down near the processing grinder equipment. No fugitive
    dust will be generated from this operation.
