Project Description: The State of Hawaii, Division of State Parks, Maui District Office is requesting quotes for the following tree trimming services at the Waianapanapa State Park: The requested tree trimming bid shall be for two (2) services. The services will need to be scheduled and conducted during the months of December 2024, and June of 2025. State Parks will need to be invoiced upon completion of each service, payment will be processed upon completion of each service and an invoice is received. 1. There are approximately 150 coconut palm trees throughout the park that needs to be trimmed and shaped. Each tree is to have all dry and excessive fronds (branches), flowers, and coconuts removed, hauled away, or shredded onsite, then disposed of at an appropriate green waste facility. Due to the height and location of some trees, it may not be accessible by a bucket truck, therefore climbing of the trees may be required to execute the required trimming work. Due to the length of time between trimming, we are asking that all Coconut trees be trimmed at points of 11 and 1. 2. We would also like to have any hazardous or dead branches from Kamane trees located at or overhanging the designated campervan camping area, the upper lookout parking lot, and over the existing walkways cut and removed. These branches must also be hauled out or chipped and properly disposed of. Branches and trunks vary in size and height. Work in these areas are to be agreed upon and completed at the time of each scheduled trimming. All tree trimming activities are required to be done to International Society of Arboriculture standards for tree pruning activities. Work activities will be performed to meet or exceed American National Standards Institute, (ANSI), Z133. 1-2012 STANDARDS FOR – Tree Care Operations – Pruning, Trimming, Repairing, Maintaining, and Removing Trees, and Cutting Brush – Safety Requirements; and ANSI A300-2008 – for Tree Care Operations – Tree, Shrub, and other Woody Plant Maintenance – Standard Practices.
