TREE PRESERVATION NOTES
CONSTRUCTION METHODS:
BORING: BORING OF UTILITIES UNDER PROTECTED TREES MAY BE REQUIRED.
WHEN REQUIRED, THE MINIMUM LENGTH OF THE BORE SHALL BE THE WIDTH OF
THE CRITICAL ROOT ZONE AND SHALL BE A MINIMUM DEPTH OF FORTY (48) INCHES.
TRENCHING: ALL TRENCHING SHALL BE DESIGNED TO AVOID TRENCHING ACROSS
CRITICAL ROOT ZONES OF ANY PROTECTED TREE. THE PLACEMENT OF
UNDERGROUND UTILITY LINES SUCH AS ELECTRIC, PHONE, GAS, ETC., IS
ENCOURAGED TO BE LOCATED OUTSIDE THE CRITICAL ROOT ZONE. TRENCHING
FOR IRRIGATION SYSTEMS SHALL BE PLACED OUTSIDE THE CRITICAL ROOT ZONE
EXCEPT THE MINIMUM REQUIRED SINGLE HEAD SUPPLY LINE. THIS LINE IS
ALLOWED TO EXTEND INTO THE CRITICAL ROOT ZONE PERPENDICULAR TO THE
TREE TRUNK WITH THE LEAST POSSIBLE DISTURBANCE.
TREES TO BE REMOVED: ALL TREES TO BE REMOVED FROM THE SITE SHALL BE
FLAGGED BY THE CONTRACTOR WITH BRIGHT RED VINYL TAPE WRAPPED AROUND
THE MAIN TRUNK AT A HEIGHT OF FOUR (4') FEET ABOVE GRADE.
TREES TO REMAIN: ALL TREES TO REMAIN, AS NOTED ON DRAWINGS, SHALL HAVE
PROTECTIVE FENCING LOCATED AT THE TREE'S DRIP LINE. THE PROTECTIVE
FENCING SHALL BE LOCATED AS INDICATED ON THE TREE PROTECTION DETAIL.
EXISTING TREES NOTED TO REMAIN SHALL BE PROTECTED DURING CONSTRUCTION
FROM DAMAGE AND COMPACTION OF SOIL UNDER AND AROUND DRIP LINE OF
TREE.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE SHALL THE CONTRACTOR PRUNE ANY PORTION OF THE
DAMAGED TREE WITHOUT THE PRIOR APPROVAL BY THE OWNER'S AUTHORIZED
REPRESENTATIVE.
PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES IN CRITICAL ROOT ZONE:
THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES ARE PROHIBITED IN THE AREAS NOTED AS THE
CRITICAL ROOT ZONE.
MATERIAL STORAGE: NO MATERIALS INTENDED FOR USE IN CONSTRUCTION, OR
WASTE MATERIALS ACCUMULATED DUE TO EXCAVATION OR DEMOLITION, SHALL BE
PLACED WITHIN THE LIMITS OF THE CRITICAL ROOT ZONE OF ANY PROTECTED
TREE.
EQUIPMENT CLEANING/LIQUID DISPOSAL: NO EQUIPMENT SHALL BE CLEANED, OR
OTHER LIQUIDS DEPOSITED OR ALLOWED WITHIN THE LIMITS OF THE CRITICAL
ROOT ZONE OF A PROTECTED TREE. THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION: PAINT,
OIL, SOLVENTS, ASPHALT, CONCRETE, MORTAR OR SIMILAR MATERIALS.
TREE ATTACHMENTS: NO SIGNS, WIRES, OR OTHER ATTACHMENTS, OTHER THAN
THOSE OF A PROTECTIVE NATURE, SHALL BE ATTACHED TO ANY PROTECTED TREE.
VEHICULAR TRAFFIC: NO VEHICULAR AND/OR CONSTRUCTION, EQUIPMENT,
TRAFFIC, OR PARKING SHALL TAKE PLACE WITHIN THE LIMITS OF THE CRITICAL
ROOT ZONE OF ANY PROTECTED TREE OTHER THAN ON EXISTING STREET
PAVEMENT.
GRADE CHANGES: A MINIMUM OF 75% OF THE DRIP LINE AND ROOT ZONE SHALL
BE PRESERVED AT NATURAL GRADE. ANY FINE GRADING DONE WITHIN THE
CRITICAL ROOT ZONES OF THE PROTECTED TREES MUST BE DONE WITH LIGHT
MACHINERY SUCH AS A BOBCAT OR LIGHT TRACTOR. NO EARTH MOVING
EQUIPMENT WITH TRACKS IS ALLOWED WITHIN THE CRITICAL ROOT ZONE OF THE
TREES.
PROCEDURES REQUIRED PRIOR TO CONSTRUCTION:
PROTECTIVE FENCING: PRIOR TO CONSTRUCTION, THE CONTRACTOR OR
SUBCONTRACTOR SHALL CONSTRUCT AND MAINTAIN, FOR EACH PROTECTED TREE
ON A CONSTRUCTION SITE, A PROTECTIVE FENCING WHICH ENCIRCLES THE OUTER
LIMITS OF THE CRITICAL ROOT ZONE OF THE TREE TO PROTECT IT FROM
CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY. ALL PROTECTIVE FENCING SHALL BE IN PLACE PRIOR TO
COMMENCEMENT OF ANY SITE WORK, AND REMAIN IN PLACE UNTIL ALL EXTERIOR
WORK HAS BEEN COMPLETED.
BARK PROTECTION: IN SITUATIONS WHERE A PROTECTED TREE REMAINS IN THE
IMMEDIATE AREA OF INTENDED CONSTRUCTION, AND THE LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT
OR OWNERS'S REPRESENTATIVE DETERMINES THE TREE BARK TO BE IN DANGER
OF DAMAGE BY CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT OR OTHER ACTIVITY, THE
CONTRACTOR OR SUBCONTRACTOR SHALL PROTECT THE TREE BY ENCLOSING
THE ENTIRE CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE TREE WITH 2"X4" LUMBER ENCIRCLED WITH
WIRE OR OTHER MEANS THAT DO NOT DAMAGE THE TREE. THE INTENT IS TO
PROTECT THE BARK OF THE TREE AGAINST INCIDENTAL CONTACT BY LARGE
CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT.

THE PROPERTY OF THE CONTRACTOR UNTIL FINAL ACCEPTANCE.
C.POSITION THE TREES AND SHRUBS IN THEIR INTENDED LOCATION AS
PER PLAN.
D.NOTIFY THE OWNER'S AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE FOR INSPECTION
AND APPROVAL OF ALL POSITIONING OF PLANT MATERIALS.
E.EXCAVATE PITS WITH VERTICAL SIDES AND HORIZONTAL BOTTOM.
TREE PITS SHALL BE LARGE ENOUGH TO PERMIT HANDLING AND
PLANTING WITHOUT INJURY TO BALLS OF EARTH OR ROOTS AND
SHALL BE OF SUCH DEPTH THAT,WHEN PLANTED AND SETTLED, THE
CROWN OF THE PLANT SHALL BEAR THE SAME RELATIONSHIP TO THE
FINISH GRADE AS IT DID TO SOIL SURFACE IN ORIGINAL PLACE OF
GROWTH. THE SIDES OF THE HOLE SHOULD BE ROUGH AND JAGGED,
NEVER SLICK OR GLAZED.
F.SHRUB AND TREE PITS SHALL BE NO LESS THAN TWENTY-FOUR (24")
INCHES WIDER THAN THE LATERAL DIMENSION OF THE EARTH BALL
AND SIX (6") INCHES DEEPER THAN IT'S VERTICAL DIMENSION.
REMOVE AND HAUL FROM SITE ALL ROCKS AND STONES OVER
THREE-QUARTER (3 4") INCH IN DIAMETER. PLANTS SHOULD BE
THOROUGHLY MOIST BEFORE REMOVING CONTAINERS.
G.PERCOLATION TEST: FILL THE HOLE WITH WATER. IF THE WATER
LEVEL DOES NOT PERCOLATE WITHIN 24 HOURS, THE TREE NEEDS TO
MOVE TO ANOTHER LOCATION OR HAVE DRAINAGE ADDED. INSTALL
A PVC STAND PIPE PER TREE IF THE PERCOLATION TEST FAILS.
H.BACKFILL ONLY WITH 5 PARTS EXISTING SOIL OR SANDY LOAM AND 1
PART BED PREPARATION. WHEN THE HOLE IS DUG IN SOLID ROCK,
TOPSOIL FROM THE SAME AREA SHOULD NOT BE USED. CAREFULLY
SETTLE BY WATERING TO PREVENT AIR POCKETS. REMOVE THE
BURLAP FROM THE TOP 13 OF THE BALL, AS WELL AS ALL NYLON,
PLASTIC STRING AND WIRE. CONTAINER TREES WILL USUALLY BE
ROOT BOUND, IF SO FOLLOW STANDARD NURSERY PRACTICE OF
‘ROOT SCORING’.
I.DO NOT WRAP TREES.
J.DO NOT OVER PRUNE.
K.REMOVE NURSERY TAGS AND STAKES FROM ALL PLANTS
L.REMOVE BOTTOM OF PLANT BOXES PRIOR TO PLACING PLANTS. REMOVE
SIDES AFTER PLACEMENT AND PARTIAL BACKFILLING.
M.REMOVE UPPER THIRD OF BURLAP FROM BALLED AND BURLAPPED TREES
AFTER PLACEMENT.
N.PLACE PLANT UPRIGHT AND PLUMB IN CENTER OF HOLE. ORIENT PLANTS
FOR BEST APPEARANCE.
O.MULCH THE TOP OF THE BALL. DO NOT PLANT GRASS ALL THE WAY
TO THE TRUNK OF THE TREE. LEAVE THE AREA ABOVE THE TOP OF
THE BALL AND MULCH WITH AT LEAST TWO (2") INCHES OF SPECIFIED
MULCH.
P.ALL PLANT BEDS AND TREES TO BE MULCHED WITH A MINIMUM
SETTLED THICKNESS OF TWO (2") INCHES OVER THE ENTIRE BED OR
PIT.
Q.OBSTRUCTION BELOW GROUND: IN THE EVENT THAT ROCK, OR
UNDERGROUND CONSTRUCTION WORK OR OBSTRUCTIONS ARE
ENCOUNTERED IN ANY PLANT PIT EXCAVATION WORK TO BE DONE
UNDER THIS SECTION, ALTERNATE LOCATIONS MAY BE SELECTED BY
THE OWNER. WHERE LOCATIONS CANNOT BE CHANGED, THE
OBSTRUCTIONS SHALL BE REMOVED TO A DEPTH OF NOT LESS THAN
THREE (3') FEET BELOW GRADE AND NO LESS THAN SIX (6") INCHES
BELOW THE BOTTOM OF BALL WHEN PLANT IS PROPERLY SET AT THE
REQUIRED GRADE. THE WORK OF THIS SECTION SHALL INCLUDE THE
REMOVAL FROM THE SITE OF SUCH ROCK OR UNDERGROUND
OBSTRUCTIONS ENCOUNTERED AT THE COST OF THE LANDSCAPE
CONTRACTOR.
R.TREES AND LARGE SHRUBS SHALL BE STAKED AS SITE CONDITIONS
REQUIRE. POSITION STAKES TO SECURE TREES AGAINST SEASONAL
PREVAILING WINDS.
S.PRUNING AND MULCHING: PRUNING SHALL BE DIRECTED BY THE
LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT AND SHALL BE PRUNED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH STANDARD HORTICULTURAL PRACTICE FOLLOWING FINE
PRUNING, CLASS I PRUNING STANDARDS PROVIDED BY THE NATIONAL
ARBORIST ASSOCIATION.
1.DEAD WOOD, SUCKERS, BROKEN AND BADLY BRUISED
BRANCHES SHALL BE REMOVED. GENERAL TIPPING OF THE
BRANCHES IS NOT PERMITTED. DO NOT CUT TERMINAL BRANCHES.
2.PRUNING SHALL BE DONE WITH CLEAN, SHARP TOOLS.
3.IMMEDIATELY AFTER PLANTING OPERATIONS ARE COMPLETED,
ALL TREE PITS SHALL BE COVERED WITH A LAYER OF ORGANIC
MATERIAL TWO (2") INCHES IN DEPTH. THIS LIMIT OF THE ORGANIC
MATERIAL FOR TREES SHALL BE THE DIAMETER OF THE PLANT PIT.
Q.STEEL EDGE INSTALLATION: EDGE SHALL BE ALIGNED AS INDICATED
ON PLANS. STAKE OUT LIMITS OF STEEL CURBING AND OBTAIN
OWNERS APPROVAL PRIOR TO INSTALLATION.
1.ALL STEEL CURBING SHALL BE FREE OF KINKS AND ABRUPT
BENDS.
2.TOP OF EDGING SHALL BE 12" MAXIMUM HEIGHT ABOVE FINAL
FINISHED GRADE.
3.STAKES ARE TO BE INSTALLED ON THE PLANTING BED SIDE OF
THE CURBING, AS OPPOSED TO THE GRASS SIDE.
4.DO NOT INSTALL STEEL EDGING ALONG SIDEWALKS OR
CURBS.
5.CUT STEEL EDGING AT 45 DEGREE ANGLE WHERE EDGING
MEETS SIDEWALKS OR CURBS.
3.3 CLEANUP AND ACCEPTANCE
A.CLEANUP: DURING THE WORK, THE PREMISES SHALL BE KEPT NEAT
AND ORDERLY AT ALL TIMES. STORAGE AREAS FOR ALL MATERIALS
SHALL BE SO ORGANIZED SO THAT THEY, TOO, ARE NEAT AND
ORDERLY. ALL TRASH AND DEBRIS SHALL BE REMOVED FROM THE
SITE AS WORK PROGRESSES. KEEP PAVED AREAS CLEAN BY
SWEEPING OR HOSING THEM AT END OF EACH WORK DAY.
B.REPAIR RUTS, HOLES AND SCARES IN GROUND SURFACES.
C.ENSURE THAT WORK IS COMPLETE AND PLANT MATERIALS ARE IN
VIGOROUS AND HEALTHY GROWING CONDITION.
D.UPON COMPLETION OF THE WORK, THE LANDSCAPE CONTRACTOR SHALL
PROVIDE THE SITE CLEAN, FREE OF DEBRIS AND TRASH, AND SUITABLE FOR
USE AS INTENDED. THE LANDSCAPE CONTRACTOR SHALL THEN REQUEST
AN INSPECTION BY THE OWNER TO DETERMINE FINAL ACCEPTABILITY.
E.WHEN/IF THE INSPECTED PLANTING WORK DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE
CONTRACT DOCUMENTS, THE LANDSCAPE CONTRACTOR SHALL REPLACE
