Questions Answers

1 If the log ends up beyond the 30’ mark away from the roads edge

(I would assume this would be measured from the curbs edge) does it still need to be removed? Portions of the project are very steep and when felling the designated trees the logs will slide down the hill and could be 50’ or more from where the tree originally stood.

Bid the project assuming the designated trees within 30 feet of the roadway edge of the pavement must be removed, as outlined in the plans, specifications and bid schedule. In the event where tree removal is impractical in the opinion of the CO, the contractor will be directed to leave the tree onsite with limbs lopped and scattered or chipped and paid under the applicable pay item.
