Inventory and marking of trees to be removed will be accomplished by the park before the contractor begins work. Total Tree Removal: Trees to be removed will be felled either mechanically (feller buncher, feller forwarder, or processor/harvester) or manually (chainsaw or other manual methods) and skidded or forwarded to a landing with a cable or grappler skidder. Trees shall be felled only when there is an adequate felling area at least equal in radius to the height of the tree. Special Attention/Hazard Trees: Subject to the American National Standard for Arboricultural Operations Pruning, Repairing, Maintaining and Removing Trees and Cutting Brush Safety Requirements ANSI Z133.1-2000.
