Common use of Infested Tree Removal Clause in Contracts

Infested Tree Removal. Polyphagous and Kuroshio Shot Hole Borers (SHBs), invasive wood-boring beetles, have been detected in native trees in the County and District mitigation sites and sensitive habitats. Wood from SHB-infested trunks and branches is still full of live beetles. If infested wood is not properly handled, beetles will emerge from the cut logs and attack new hosts. Specific wood disposal requirements must be adhered to in order to prevent spread, including chipping infested wood to a diameter of less than 1 inch and disposing of the wood chips at an approved landfill. Please see ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/sites/pshb/id-mgmt/disposal/ for additional guidance on disposal of SHB-infested wood.
