ASSIGNMENT OF WORK
All projects will be quoted to the qualified vendors using lump sum pricing. Quotes must be received within ten (10) business days
or within timeframe dictated by project manager for non -urgent work requests.
DETAILED SCOPE OF WORK
Contractors must have knowledge and experience in hardwood canopy and palm pruning. They must adhere to the ANSI accredited
Standards A300 policies and standards, current edition, for pruning, fertilization, supports systems, and other aspects of tree care and
ISA Best Management Practices, and the ability to recognize, diagnose and report tree defects caused by pest, tree and/or root
structure, and diseases.
• Contractors shall have a certified arborist on staff to supervise and direct field personnel to ensure that all work is completed
per specifications for hardwood tree maintenance services.
• The services performed herein shall consist of the contractor furnishing all equipment, materials, tools, transportation, traffic
controls, insurance, labor, and supervision for the Division.
• The seven main objectives for pruning services are: 1) reduce the risk of failure; 2) provide clearance; 3) reduce shade and
wind resistance; 4) maintain health; 5) influence flower and/or fruit production; 6) improve views; and 7) improve aesthetics.
Tree and Palm Maintenance is divided into five (5) categories: 1. Basic Tree Pruning; 2. Structural Tree Pruning; 3. Palm Pruning;
4. Stump and Root Grinding; 5. De -boot (clean) Palm Trees.
1. Basic Tree Pruning
Following ISA Best Management Practices, this category is divided into four primary pruning methods which include: a.
Cleaning, b. Thinning, c. Raising, and d. Reducing.
a. Cleaning
Cleaning trees is the selective removal of dead, diseased, cracked, stubbed, hanging, and broken branches. This service can be
performed on a tree of any age but is most common in middle-aged to mature trees.
Cleaning is the preferred method for mature trees because it does not remove live branches unnecessarily. The location of the
branches to be removed should be reviewed with the Project Manager or designee.
b. Thinnine
Pruning to thin is the selective removal of small live branches to reduce crown density. Proper thinning retains the crown shape
and size and should provide an even distribution of foliage throughout the crown.
c. Raisine
Pruning to raise, elevate, or lift a canopy is the selective removal of branches to provide vertical clearance.
Trees within planting beds, an 8-foot height clearance is required or as directed by the Project Manager or designee.
d. Reducing
Pruning to reduce is the selective removal of branches and stems to decrease the height and/or spread of a tree or shrub.
2. Structural Tree Pruning
Structural tree pruning is the removal of live branches and stems to influence orientation, spacing, growth rate, strength of
attachment, and ultimate size of branches and stems. The removal percentage is between 25 — 50 percent depending on the tree
type. The structural pruning includes all basic tree pruning techniques listed.
3. Palm Pruning
Removal of fronds, flowers, fruit, stems, or loose petioles that may create a hazardous condition. Palms may be pruned for
aesthetic reasons to eliminate sprouts and stems or dead fronds and seedpods.
• Live healthy fronds should not be removed. If they must be removed avoid removing those that initiate above horizontal.
Fronds removed should be severed close to the petiole base without damaging living trunk tissue.
• Only those fronds with petiole drooping below horizontal 9:00-3:00 position should be removed. All seed pods should
be removed including those originating among remaining fronds. When removing fronds and seedpods, care should be
taken so those fronds that are to remain are not nicked or wounded.
Exhibit A

• Climbing spikes shall not be used to climb palms for pruning.
4. Stump and Root Grinding
