    The residents of Salford, and to some extent the TO (although I get the feeling it is forced upon him from above) Yes agree, it's as wasteful as wasteful can be here, we end up going back to the same trees over and over again, there are trees in Salford from back in the day, that where thinned, then thinned and further thinned again. Unfortunately it was never done properly and they look like huge lion takes, we now have to reduce them! I can tell you now that not one reduction we have done (to my knowledge) in Salford had between done to reduce a hazard, if there is a hazard present, it normally gets felled. I'm out of here as soon as is physically possible to go create my marvelous chronicles elsewhere. PS, I do enjoy my job most of the time:biggrin: Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

    People unfortunately David, Salford is very, very client led i.e. someone whinges about poor light issues, leaves falling in their garden, you know in a couple of months you'll be back to reduce it.. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

    Hi Acer, I live in Burscough in West Lancs, but how about 2 scenarios:biggrin: First one, take a look at this Hopefully if you click the little blue arrow box in the quoted text it should take you to my other thread where you will find said assignment survey for uni. (let me know if it works or not for you) Secondly, for a stand of trees, Google "Ruff Wood" Ormskirk and Google street view "Ruff Lane", would it be possible to use the row of trees that are adjacent to Ruff Lane from Ruff Woods itself?? Thanks for going through this:thumbup:

    This is one of the things i don't agree with, buying into a system! Especially if its a system i am not fully sure of. Acer is doing a grand job of delving into the depths of the undergrowth of QTRA, but when statements like this appear, it strikes me as "your ass will only be covered if you suscribe to my method, oh and it'll cost ya too!" This however, i do agree with, never say never... Rely on what you know and trust but always have a backup, just a shame its not "free". I think i get the essence of QTRA, but what i have an issue with is going back to the idea that we "need" to quantify it (risk)? We managed well enough before it didn't we? Acer, would it be possible to run through a hypothetical stand of trees that a fictitious land owner has asked you to give him an assessment of risk on, from start to finish? Or is that too much to ask on a public forum?
