County Announces Contract for Hazard Tree Removal for Butte Fire Recovery
San Andreas, CA...The Calaveras County Board of Supervisors called for a special meeting on August 2, 2016, to vote on the award of a Professional Services Agreement for hazardous tree removal of burnt trees resulting from the Butte Fire which occurred in September of 2015. The contract was awarded to Phillips and Jordan for a total of $9,775,053.39 and terminates on August 31, 2017.
In response to a Request for Proposals, the County received 4 proposals. Each was evaluated on eight major criteria. Those included ‘Understanding of the Work’, ‘Experience with Similar Work’ and ‘Cost’. Funding for this project is from a FEMA Public Assistance Program for Disaster Recovery-Debris Removal and will be funded by both FEMA and CalOES. The County is optimistic that local employment opportunities will result from this award.
