Subject: McKean S Tree Protection
Todd (and OPH Staff) -
I visited the McKean S site on Sun. Au 3rd and inspected the tree
protection fencin and the excavation area for the detention basin on the
south side of the propert I made the followin observations:
1. None of the tree protection fencin has been repaired in an of the
areas mentioned in m memo of 7/21/03 - please take care of this ASAP
In addition:
2. fencin is now also down on the east side of the ever on the
west side of the entrance road
3. fencin is now down on the NE side of oaks N of the lar wetland
4. there is soil piled within the branch spread of a bur oak on the S side of
the road which is just N of the lar wetland, also block and pipes are
piled on the root s - move the block and pipes and put up tree
protection fencin at ed of g raded area, also remove soil from root
s if possible
5. there is no tree protection fencin around oaks south of the roadwa on
the south part of the propert where the detention basin was j ust
excavated, there is also g radin g close to the trunks of several lar oaks (I
was not aware that e would be g oin g into that area from the
roadwa south, I thou the were accessin the excavation area from
the west) - put up fencin around these trees, as far from trunks as
g radin g will allow.
There are a number of infractions re tree protection. Please
correct these b the end of this week and call me for an inspection.
