The Bureau of Land Management , Nevada State Office, is seeking a qualified vendor to furnish the fabrication of seven copies of 3 signs for a total of 21 signs, and the complete design and fabrication of 12 interpretive signs to be used on the Silver State Trail located in Lincoln County, NV.
The Silver State Trail (SST) is a 260 mile Off-Highway Vehicle (OHV) Trail located in Lincoln County, Nevada and is managed by the Nevada Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Ely District. The trail is currently in place and minor adjustments are being made to access points, re-routes, crossings, and trailheads. Use on the trail is expected to increase with the rise of population in Clark and Lincoln Counties and the growing popularity of OHV's. Increased use will heighten environmental impacts. It is the intent that a well designed, built, and maintained sign plan will be able to effectively mitigate OHV impacts to our natural resources and provide a safe and memorable experience for the user group.
The 260 miles of trail include 7 trailheads that can be accessed from Highway 93 and State Route 318. Informational kiosks will be located at the 7 trailheads and will have a large map for the center sign, a Tread Lightly!? sign to the right, and a sign with local rules and regulations regarding the Ely District's natural resources to the left.
There will be approximately 12 interpretive signs located along the trail at natural resting areas. The themes for the signs will include, but are not limited to, fire history, invasive weeds, wild horses, great basin ecology, mining history, and wilderness/multi-use recreation.
