The tender, titled "REQUEST FOR QUOTATION - Peatland Restoration works on Cranny Bogs SAC, Co Tyrone," falls under the main procurement category of services in the environmental rehabilitation industry. The contract has a value of £60,000 and the procurement stage is currently active. The deadline for submissions is 26th July 2024, and the contract period ends on 1st March 2025. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses experienced in environmental rehabilitation and construction work to participate in the restoration of Cranny Bogs SAC. Companies offering ground-drainage work, environmental improvement works, forestry services, and other related services are well-suited to compete. The procurement method is open, and interested suppliers should review the ITT documents for full details of the suitability criteria. The selection criteria focus on supplier suitability, and the submission methods allow for electronic and written submissions through the provided link. ## Notice Ulster Wildlife is seeking to appoint an experienced contractor to carry out the peatland restoration works listed below: - Construction of peat dams at predetermined locations across Cranny Bogs SAC - Construction of peat bunds at predetermined locations across Cranny Bogs SAC - Any ancillary works required to carry out the works outlined above including tree and scrub clearance. Many of the areas of Cranny bogs periphery have been cutover in the past and as a result have developed unfavourable vegetation dominated by purple moor grass (Molinia caerulea), bog myrtle (Myrica gale) and both immature and more established scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) and silver birch (Betula pendula). The aim of this contract is to use peat dams to block lower priority drains in the cutover and high bog edge as well as bunding in key areas of cutover based on flowpaths derived from the LiDAR imagery. These peat dams will raise the water table in the same way that existing dams have and the cell bunding will create shallow pools of water within the cutover areas. This will improve conditions for sphagnum species and cotton grasses and hinder the growth and persistence of purple moor grass and scrub. Operators will be expected to observe closely the conditions of work outlined in this tender and its attachments to ensure there is minimum disturbance to the priority habitats. Conditions (such as time of works, use of biodegradable oils and tracked vehicles) are fully outlined in Section 3 of the ITT and should be examined closely by contractors wishing to tender for this work. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Ulster Wildlife is seeking to appoint an experienced contractor to carry out the peatland restoration works listed below: - Construction of peat dams at predetermined locations across Cranny Bogs SAC - Construction of peat bunds at predetermined locations across Cranny Bogs SAC - Any ancillary works required to carry out the works outlined above including tree and scrub clearance.
