About this file

This drawing provides specifications for roadside brushing services on the Tongass National Forest. The US Forest Service requires brush to be cut back from road surfaces, shoulders, ditches, culverts and slopes based on two specified treatment methods. Method A requires brushing from 5 feet beyond the toe of ditches to 10 feet on fill slopes or 15 feet from road shoulders, whichever is less. Method B requires brushing from ditch toes to 5 feet on fill slopes. Brush within treatment areas must be cut to less than 6 inches in diameter and provide 14 feet of overhead clearance. All debris must be removed from road infrastructure.
