Description
This project is focused on blading and applying a dust palliative to the road at the West Glacier River access site in West Glacier, MT. Dust abatement will occur at the site each year between June 1 and July 15 once the need has been determined.
Dust abatement is an important service provided at West Glacier River access site as it is the most heavily used river access site on the North and Middle Forks of the Flathead. Both commercial river outfitters and private users regularly use this site from June to September. It is also located adjacent to a residential community; with the high vehicle use, dust becomes a prevalent nuisance to both users and neighbors.
See Attachments 2 and 3 for technical specifications for dust abatement: FP-14 Dust Palliative Mixtures (green highlight) and FP-14 Dust Palliative Spec. The application area will include both parking areas, the loop road, and the area leading to the boat ramp at West Glacier. Work to be included is blading the road prior to application of the dust palliative. The road is approximately 0.2 miles long and typically has required ~7 tons of dust palliative. A map of the access site and its location is also provided (Attachment 1).
Please see attachment 1284LM25Q0011.docx for submittal instructions.
Questions regarding this solicitation are due no later than March 21, 2025, COB to joanne.meiers@usda.gov.
