Trees in the middle twenty (20) feet of a road easement will be removed first, with remaining trees to be skidded toward the middle of the road easement. This same prOcedure will apply to building sites. Mature trees, especially oak and elm, adjoining an easement so that roots enter the d~sturbed construction area shall first be severed by a vibratory plow to prevent stianering, scraping and exposure of roots of high value trees on adjoining p~'openy. Recognized trees of value, suitable for tree spade removal that would otherwise be dasrroyed, shall be identified with ribbon and offered to the CITY at least five (5) days prior to desumction. fo Tree wood removed during construction, road building and sewer/water installation shall be buried, burned, chipped or hauled to a licensed wood disposal site. Wood waste disposal must take into account tree disease control, especially for oak wilt and Dutch Elm disease. The tree inspector needs to make a site inspection to ascertain tree disease hazard prior to construction in order to minimize impact on trees adjoining easement, (including root damage and grade changes) and for disease control. An inspection to reduce or abate wood waste disposal must also m~nage air quality impact and smoke nuisance to adjoining property owners as well as l'ire safety concerns. Whole trees may not be disposed of by burning. Trunks and Iimbs larger than six (6) inches in diameter must be salvaged for lumber, firewood, chipped or hauled to a licensed wood disposal site.

The location of the proposed open burn site will be ~specified by the City Engineer, Environmental Specialist and Fire Chief. Wood di.sposal by burning requires whole tree volume reduction, proposed site inspection prior to clearing and an open burning permit. Residual ash and unburned stumpage ma>' be buried on the site at the direction of the City Engineer.
