Costings should also show the potential market value of chip and any potential profit and loss forecasted. This can be provided as an Excel spreadsheet. The waste brash material left over from felling has always been an issue at Forsinard and it has proved difficult to deal with. The main restoration technique we have used for dealing with brash up to now has been deep mulching. This is effective in reducing the brash, grinding out the stumps and in reprofiling the plough furrows. The downside of deep mulching is that material is reduced in size and remains on site and small pockets of sphagnum which have already started to colonise on previously forested areas are often destroyed. If the brash is chipped it would mean that a large amount of material is removed from site and sold to be converted into wood pellets which can be used as fuel. This is something that we want to trial because we think it will have the following benefits to peatland restoration at Forsinard Flows Reserve. - Overall chipping recently felled areas is cheaper than the higher cost of deep mulching as the brash has a value for sale as woodchip. - It will remove the bulk of waste material meaning more effective peatland restoration and a speedier recovery to blanket bog which will in turn speed up carbon storage. - It means there will be less nutrients left on site to leach out and potentially effect watercourses. - The risk of having a ready supply of fuel during a wildfire is greatly reduced.", "status": "active", "hasOptions": false, "submissionTerms": { "variantPolicy": "notAllowed" }, "contractPeriod": { "startDate": "2023-02-01T00:00:00Z", "endDate": "2023-03-31T00:00:00Z" }, "hasRenewal": true, "renewal": { "description": "In extreme circumstances." } } ], "bidOpening": { "date": "2022-06-13T09:00:00Z" }, "coveredBy": [ "GPA" ], "submissionTerms": { "languages": [ "en" ] }, "classification": { "id": "77200000", "scheme": "CPV" }, "hasRecurrence": false }, "language": "EN", "description": "NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the Public Contracts Scotland Web Site at https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=693327.
