1 Tree Planting Memorial Park Demonstration Project Nic Griffin Vegetation Management Coordinator

2 Tree Planting Program Objectives Establish a closed canopy of trees to reduce or eliminate cyclical maintenance Create a self-sustaining system that requires little to no long term maintenance Maximize benefits trees provide: Erosion Control Habitat Restoration/Creation Shading of Aquatic Habitat

3 HCFCD Tree Planting Since 2001 Average annual planting of 18,000 to 20,000 trees 180 planting sites Over 1,000 acres 198,000 trees & shrubs 71 different species

4 Are we meeting our objectives? Canopy Closure: E (9-years) 2/ / /2013

5 Tree Planting Process Tree species are selected based on site conditions Trees are planted and maintained by our Contractor Trees are planted using ISA Best Management Practices

6 Tree Maintenance Tree Maintenance for 2 years post planting Maintenance plan submitted for HCFCD approval Regular site visits by HCFCD Inspectors Maintenance payment based on an annual inventory of healthy trees
