Description

The Florida Forest Service is selling the right to harvest merchantable pine and hardwood timber damaged by Hurricane Isaias across designated areas of Blackwater River State Forest. Products include pine pulpwood, pine chip-n-saw, pine sawtimber, and hardwood pulpwood. Eligible timber includes trees blown down, broken off, leaning more than 15 degrees, or otherwise damaged; harvesting timber that does not meet these criteria requires approval from the Forester-in-Charge. There is no volume estimate, and the attached map identifies the sale area and damage zones. Harvesting must prioritize areas of extensive damage, followed by lower-damage areas. Approximately 1,727 acres around red-cockaded woodpecker clusters must be harvested before March 15, 2027. The successful bidder must begin harvesting within 10 business days of contract execution, and the contract term is six months. If the same bidder is the highest acceptable bidder on multiple concurrent salvage sales, it must forfeit all but one unless it has adequate equipment and personnel to harvest multiple sales simultaneously.
