Diseased or dying trees identified for removal (49 in total) are primarily located in the diseased <br /> tree area shown on Figure 7. However, some dead white pine trees were also present in the <br /> conifer areas. Diseased/dead trees identified for removal are hazard trees in poor to dead/dying <br /> condition and are in locations that would endanger property and/or other trees. Due to their <br /> e�citing low quality,mitigation for these trees is not proposed. � <br /> Mitigation for any snags removed from within the building area would not require mitigation as <br /> snags are dead trees. However, snags outside of the building area do not pose a hazard and can <br /> provide valuable wildlife habitat to a wide variety of birds and mammals and should left in place. <br /> Many of the larger sugar maples in the very southeast portion of the site have numerous cavities, <br /> and barred owl feathers were observed. These trees should be left in place unless they pose a <br /> hazard to the building sites. <br /> Tree Protection and Mitigation Plan—The exact trees that will be removed due to home <br /> construction is unknown at this time. Therefore a mitigation plan for impacts to healthy trees has <br /> not been provided with this memo. <br /> When assessing tree impacts in the future,boxelder trees should be considered to be an invasive <br /> native species and therefore should not require mitigation. <br /> ' <br />
