Zero tolerance for reductions

Recommended Posts

I am having to provide further info on a 2-3 metre crown reduction on a large ash that's imposing on a garden. Local council says I have to give a specific report and state my qualifications. I am qualified tree surgeon with 38/39. Any ideas on what I can state- telling them it is a bit big for its situation may not be enough..!

It really has an large limb which I would remove but consultant mate said it would be too much of a wound to remove. Therefore just applying for the reduction.

Ideas of general wording for report would be helpful.. thanks

Yep I agree with Rich

 

its most likely they refer to your qualification to recommend works not your vocational skills set that you use to carryout the works, local authorities can only require that works are conducted in line with Bs3998 2010 as to do otherwise may financially disadvantage those tree owners who are potentially able to read, understand and implement the works identified to the above standard

 

however the works recommendations & or application & or notice 211 of intent to do works need some supporting qualification to support the process to give a qualified view point of the tree & those works needed for good tree management intervention.
