Description
The State of Colorado, through Colorado Parks and Wildlife, seeks qualified aerial applicators to treat approximately 2,000 acres of cheatgrass‑infested habitat in the Apishapa State Wildlife Area using a tank mix of indaziflam (Rejuvra) and imazapic. The contract may be awarded to one or multiple vendors, with CPW supplying 37.5 gallons of Rejuvra for up to 960 acres; vendors must price per‑acre application, provide pattern‑testing documentation, and deliver post‑treatment maps. Work must start by November 11 2026 and be completed no later than June 30 2027.
