<br />PART III - EXECUTION
<br />3.1 PREPARATION FOR RELOCATION OF TREES AND PALMS
<br />A Crown Pruning
<br />1, Broadleaf Trees - All bees are to be trimmed by thinning the crown only, and of by
<br />reducing crown dimensions. Trim to conform to NAA and ISA standards, including removal
<br />of dead woad. Repair any existing injuries to trees including cavities and machinery marks.
<br />2. Palms - Remove all seed pods and lowest fronds, leaving 9 -11 youngest fronds. For
<br />Sabal Palms only, cut back all fords in a'hurricane cut' prior to transplanting unless specified
<br />otherwise in the field by the landscape architect.
<br />B. Fertilization and Watering
<br />1. Preparation
<br />a. All Trees and Palms Io be relocated shall be treated with wetting agents, (edit ers,
<br />root stimulants, and soil conditioners at the time of relocation. See specification 02920.
<br />b. Form and maintain an earth berm 6' high outside the proposed rot ball prior to
<br />watering and apply 3' approved mulch within saucer. Water application shall
<br />saturate the root ball to its entire depth.
<br />C. Rol Pruning
<br />1. Watering
<br />All from and palms to be relocated are to be provided with an automatic irrigation
<br />system which provides 2 bubbler heads to each tree and palm, prior to root pruning.
<br />Fronde irrigation timer, or battery powered valve to water Imes to be relocated. Hand
<br />watering in lieu of automatic system shall not be allowed, however hand watering shall be
<br />pertormed to avoid lapses should the automatic system be inoperable for more than 24
<br />=r and during the initial planting period as specified.
<br />2. Barricades
<br />Barricade all existing trees and palms with six foot (61 chain link fence or other barricade
<br />approved by Own -
<br />Rod Pruning Technique -All trees shall be excavated by digging a trench 36' deep,
<br />either by hand or with a trenching machine designed for this purpose. Hand cut broadleaf
<br />tree rots after trenching to produce clean outs with no splits or teas. Trees to be root
<br />pruned shall have a minimum root ball size of 10' per l' of caliper measured at DBH to r
<br />broad leaf trees, 30' for Sabal Palms, 42' for Coconut Palms. Sepal palms shall not require
<br />rot pruning.
<br />Tiding -AII broadleaf trees are to be relocated shall be maintained for a minimum of tern
<br />(10 }make after rot pruning prior to relocation. All palms except Sabel Palms, shall bet
<br />maintained a minimum of four (4) weeks prior to relocation.

<br />3.2 RELOCATION OF TREES AND PALMS
<br />A. Preparation - Trees and palms shall be thoroughly soaked to the full depth of the root
<br />ball dairy for seven consecutive days prior to relocation. Accurately locate positron and
<br />elevation where all trees are intended to be planted, for verification by Landscape
<br />Architect. Verity that no overhead or underground ufirdies, existing or proposed, conflict
<br />with pmposed locations.
<br />B. Digging and Handling
<br />Determine line of previous root pruning and excavate around root mass to leave area
<br />outside line of root pruning undisturbed. Digging shall be accomplished so as to
<br />produce clean cuts on all roots without leading or splitting. Trenching shall be a minimum of
<br />48' deep.
<br />Trees shall be handled in such a way as to avoid damage to bark and limbs subject to
<br />support cables or chains. Attach padded support cables or chains at multiple points
<br />where possible.
<br />Root balk shall be undercut prior to lifting. Do not force tree from ground prior to
<br />undercutting. Ball depth to be determined upon assessing conditions at time of trenching,
<br />to keep intact the mike root ball.
<br />Trees shall be property wrapped during moving m trunks will not be scarred and damaged
<br />and to avoid broken limbs. Broken limbs or scarred Trunks shall cause tree to be
<br />unacceptable and rejected at the Owner's option. Root balls and foliage shall be kept
<br />mist during all phases of relocation.
<br />Partially backfrll tree pits with 12' of approved planting soil prior to seibng tree. This
<br />layer of soil to be thoroughly drenched prior to relocation to achieve a stable platform
<br />at the ccmecl elevation so that the lop of root ball is 1' above proposed grade.
<br />Backfilling - Flood bottom foil layer to settle tree into best position and to remove air
<br />pockets. Continue to flood root bail as planting sdi is deposited to insure removal of all
<br />air pockets. Produce saucer, to retain water per drawings.
<br />Bracing - Support tree with machinery until bracing is complete. Buttresses may support
<br />separate bunks on multiple trunk trees. Maintain braces until completion of prejecl.
<br />Irrigation - Install bubbler heads on all trees and palms. Connect each Ime's system
<br />immediately to water source. Additionally, all transplanted Imes and palms shall be hand
<br />watered daily for a period of six (6) weeks after transplanting. The irrigation system is
<br />designed for maintaining plant material only, and does not provide the volume of we ler
<br />required immediately after transplanting. Set time to run daily, to provide an equivalent of
<br />6' of rain per week for 30 days, [hen reduce to equivalent of 3' per week.
<br />C. Holding Area
<br />A holding area shall be provided specifically designated for storage and accltmalbal on
<br />of relocated from and palms that are to be relocated in later project phases, or in the
<br />current phase. The holding area shall be of sufficient size to allow for temporary painting
<br />of Imes and palms without undue c—cling.
<br />Holding area shall be provided with a temporary automatic irrigation system, and shot '. be
<br />excavated and provided with a soil layer a minimum of 30' deep. Irrigation shall be
<br />monitored and supplemented as necessary to provide water in volumes sufficient for
<br />growth.

<br />be utilized as the temporary imitalio system.
<br />Barricading - Barricade all existing trees and palms with six foot (6) chain link fence or other
<br />barricade approved by Owner. Barricades shall be installed at an offset distance two feel IT)
<br />outside the bee drip lineledge of Iro canopy to the extent practical, prior to any construction
