That would mean only the owner could do the felling .

There seems to be confusion about this. The volume limits apply to "the felling by any person of trees on land in his occupation or occupied by a tenant of his". I don't think it matters who actually wields the chainsaw on behalf of that owner, it is the decision to fell by the ownber that matters.

If the owner has more than one site, the limit in theory applies to the combined sites.

Yea I knew that . That's why I was saying the license applies to the site not the person doing the felling .
