Specifications include, but are not limited to: Grounds Maintenance (Mowing and Trimming) Mow and trim the lawn area of the Rest Area grounds consisting of approximately 8.4 acres per cycle. The estimated acreage to be mowed is 8.4 acres per mowing cycle with an estimate of 25 cycles for the mowing season. This amount may vary based upon weather conditions. Perform the mowing operation with commercial grade turf type mowing equipment not less than 48" and not more than 72" in width. A small push type mower may be utilized for trimming. Farm tractors with rotary finish mowers will not be allowed. Mow the grass to a minimum height of 3". Correct any uneven or streaked mowing immediately. The Department will direct the time and place for mowing to begin. If a mowing cycle is delayed because of weather conditions or other problems that results in a build up of grass clippings (bio-mass), remove or disperse the clippings over the area to eliminate unsightly build-up of debris and to prevent the smothering of the turf.
