## Summary

The procurement process for the award of "501_0849 Appin Roadside Felling and Extraction" services was initiated by Forestry and Land Scotland. The tender period started on 31st October 2022 and ended on 30th November 2022. The contract was awarded to Argyll Forestry Services Ltd for a value of £46,000. The location for this contract is in Appin Forest for the safe felling and extraction of timber.

This tender presents business growth opportunities for companies specializing in horticultural services, forestry, and timber extraction.

## Notice

To safely fell, process and remove timber from a 1.4 hectare strip of ground in Appin Forest, isolated between an overhead power line and the A828 (Oban to Fort William) trunk road. The operation will require red-zone felling work under a shutdown (dates to be confirmed with SSE - likely mid to late August) along with processing and loading of timber from the public road working under traffic control.
