Natural Resource Inventory and Trails Assessment Services

The Town of Newmarket, New Hampshire, is seeking natural resource inventory and trails assessment services for nine abutting town-owned parcels. The agency aims to determine the best stewardship practices to protect wildlife, water, and overall ecological health while identifying suitable pathways for public access. This project will help the town balance environmental conservation with recreational appreciation of the region's natural beauty and significance. The scope of work requires the selected contractor to conduct a comprehensive natural resource inventory and a detailed trails analysis. The agency expects a suite of maps depicting the inventory findings, including their context within the regional conservation lands network. Additionally, the contractor must map existing trails and other infrastructure, deliver GIS data layers, provide high-resolution images from wildlife cameras, and identify key natural, physical, and cultural features. Only organizations based onshore in the United States are eligible to bid on this opportunity. The agency will allow the selected contractor to perform the work offsite. Bidders must submit their proposals digitally via email or through the designated online portal, and the agency is currently requesting budget proposals to determine the project cost.
