Vegetation Removal. A. Vegetation removal must be limited to the minimum necessary to accommodate approved shoreline development. Mitigation sequencing per regulation 6.3(3) must be applied unless specifically excluded by other shoreline provisions, so that the design and location of the structure or development minimizes short- and long-term vegetation removal. The City may require site plan alterations to achieve maximum vegetation retention.
Vegetation Removal. 1. Crews shall remove all shrubs and vegetation unintentionally growing on channel slopes and access walkways.
Vegetation Removal removal of vegetation that directly reduces a facility’s capacity and/or endangers a facility, including overhanging branches or tree limbs.
Vegetation Removal. Disturbance or removal of vegetation shall be kept to the minimum necessary to complete project related activities.
Vegetation Removal consists of random clearing, side trimming, herbicide applications and debris removal operations.
Vegetation Removal. The disturbance or removal of vegetation shall not exceed the minimum necessary to complete work. Precautions shall be taken to avoid other damage to vegetation by people or equipment. Except for trees on dam and levee embankments, any trees which must be cut shall be cut at ground level, leaving the root mass in place to maintain bank stability. Avoid impacts to active bird nests.
Vegetation Removal. Vegetation shall be placed on top of re-contoured - road segments and completed channel side slopes in stable positions not interfering with stream channel flow.
Vegetation Removal. It is recommended that a Forestry Mower or similar attached to a Bobcat or Skidsteer be utilized for items 7.1 – 7.5. However, other methods may be utilized if agreed upon by the COR. Note that all say cut to GROUND level.
Vegetation Removal. An operational work pad area will be established near the culvert outlets to complete the culvert rehabilitation process, as well as at the inlet near Courtland Avenue where the 60” CMP will be replaced or lined. Vegetation must be cleared to allow room for the work pad. NCDOT will cut plants in the work pad area in a way that will minimize impacts to bats and their activity by implementing the following measures: vegetation will not be removed if the area will be left bare for many months prior to construction; cutting of vegetation will be coordinated with USFWS and will not occur until all bats have left the culvert for the winter. This will be determined through emergence counts and/or acoustic monitoring and a physical check of the culvert for remaining bats; and limiting cutting to only what is necessary to complete the work and no more than 50 feet from culvert inlet/outlets.
