STATEMENT OF WORK

Post Hurricane Urban Hazard Tree Assessment as an Urban Reforestation Planning Tool

Data Analysis, Reporting, and Field Guide

Caribbean Urban Hazard Trees Field Guide

1. SCOPE

The purpose of this project is to use data obtained by the implementation of a Level 1 assessment to identify defects and specific hazardous conditions in urban trees that signify imminent and probable tree failure in public urban locations such as plazas, parks, and recreational areas. Data will be use to then abate and mitigate likelihood of failing and protect lives and properties and to create a field guide that includes important technical information on the assessment and management of trees after a natural disaster and using areas evaluated as case studies. Publication will be prepared to provide guidance and technical information to the public in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.

Background and Justification

Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands suffered impacts of Hurricanes Irma and Maria, fourteen days apart. Irma, a category five hurricane, blasted the United States Virgin Islands, particularly the islands of St. Thomas and St. John and caused significant damage to Eastern Puerto Rico.

Maria a category four hurricane, few miles short of a category five, passed fifteen miles southwest of the island of St. Croix and made landfall on Puerto Rico. Forests and infrastructure experience significant damage caused by high winds and heavy rainfall. Hurricane impact to urban trees is evident as many trees failed and other show major structural defects.

A tree is consider a hazard tree when the failure of one or more of their parts results in property damage and/or personal injury (Matheny, N. and Clark J, 1994). Managers and municipal authorities have the responsibility to identify and address hazardous situations and provide appropriate tree care to mitigate risks and provide for citizens’ safety. This exercise should be considered and implemented after a major natural disaster, construction, pest or disease, or any other external event that affects the integrity of the urban trees.

The International Institute of Tropical Forestry serves both Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands and is responsible for State and Private Forestry (S&PF) as well as Research and Development

Programs in this sector of the Caribbean. The Institute delivers all State and Private Forestry

Programs, including urban forestry, to these governments, conduct research through two experimental forest and other research areas scattered through the islands, and through collaboration with the Forest and Inventory Analysis Program of the Southern Research Station.

2. DELIVERABLES

Field guide as described below to include information collected on the field during the Level 1

Urban Hazard Tree Assessment inventories and worksheets for all areas visited including identification of trees, species and description, identification of hazard condition, risk ranking, and management recommendations. Compile, manage, and interpret data collected during field visits. Analysis of data including statistics by Municipality, site, and region. Case studies will report description of the condition of municipal and natural recreational areas urban trees including number of hazard trees, risk severity, management recommendation including removal or pruning, and an estimated budget. Process will be described in the document.

The International Institute of Tropical Forestry retains ownership of all materials developed under this contract and will be credited on all materials produces and presented under this contract including and not limited to publications, fact sheets, written material, videos, photographs, and other related products.

Project description- Data Collection and Reporting Phase
