BUSHFIRE RECOVERY
TREE MARKING REPORT
Silver Parrot Road
Hazeldene
Ass date 9 Jun 2010
Assessing Arborist G. Gerdsen

Rural/residential area. narrow lane improved


earth road, servicing a number of residential
properties.

Vegetation, a mixture of very tall semi-mature


Eucalyptus cypellocarpa, Eucalyptus obliqua,
Eucalyptus viminalis and Acacia melanoxylon.
Most of the eucalypts are regenerating well with
nearly all indicating good vigour. A large num-
ber of taller specimens have been removed.

However some that are close to the road edge


have responded well with large volumes of epi-
cormic growth in the canopies. This growth has
subsequently caused branch end weights to be
somewhat heavy for the supporting structures
and need to be reduced.

Proposed work required includes some removals and some trims at height, especially horizontal branching
of mainly dead terminals of branches that occur over the roadway. All trims required, present a hazard to
road users and property infrastructure.

This section of road has previously been scoped and cut to original scope of works, June 2009.

MAINTAIN MINIMUM SOIL AND VEGETATION DISTURBANCE ON ROAD RESERVE

DEADWOOD AND CLEANOUT ALL CANOPIES IN SECTION

Where possible retain charred trunks and large branches (hollow or other) on site for habitat.
