Florida Certified Arborist on staff to supervise and direct field personnel to ensure that work is completed per specifications to include, but not limited to, palm and tree maintenance services, tree and palm planting and staking, stump, and root grinding. d. ISA Best Management Practices e. 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 fruit production; 6) improve views; and 7) improve aesthetics. 1.2.1. Tree and Palm Maintenance is divided into four (4) categories: 1. Basic Tree Pruning; 2. Structural Tree Pruning; 3. Palm Pruning; 4. Stump and Root Grinding. 1.2.1.1. Category 1. Basic Tree Pruning In accordance with ISA Best Management Practices, this category is divided into four (4) 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 trees of any age but is most common on middle-aged and mature trees. This is the preferred method for mature trees because it does not remove live branches unnecessarily. The removal location of branches requires review and approval with Division’s Landscape Supervisor. b. Thinning Pruning 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. i. Thinning includes removing d ead or broken limbs one inch (1”) in diameter or larger; if two (2) limbs are crowning or touching each other, shorten or remove one of them; originate within twelve inches (12”) of each other on the trunk, shorten or remove one of them. ii. Use directional pruning, so future growth is directed away from the roadway, sidewalk, building, street lights, or possible obstruction. iii. Thinning increases the sunlight penetration and air movement throughout the crown and with increased light and air stimulate, it aids in maintaining interior foliage. iv. No excessive branch removal on the lower two-thirds (2/3) of a branch or stem (lion tailing). This may cause adverse affects on the tree and is not an acceptable practice. v. Thinning crown requires approval by Division Landscape Supervisor, and the percentage of foliage must be specified. The removal percentage is between ten- fifteen percent (10%-15%) percent, and should not exceed 25 percent (25%) of the foliage when using pruning to thin methods. c. Raising Pruning to raise, elevate, or lift tree canopy by selective removal of branches to provide vertical clearance. i. Crown raising shortens or removes lower branches of a tree to provide clearance for buildings, signs, vehicles, pedestrians, and vistas. Live crown to clear trunk ratio should be no less than 50 percent when raising is completed. ii. Structural pruning should be considered with raising according to ANSI standards. When raising, the desired clearance should be specified by Division Landscape Supervisor. 16.A.9.b Packet Pg. 475 Attachment: 18-7254 Attachment A Scope of Services (5405 : ITB No. 18-7254 Airport Pulling Rd Landscape Maintenance) ITB #18-7254 Airport Pulling Road Landscape Maintenance 10 iii. Branches over paved areas should be shortened or removed to allow approximately ten foot (10’) over sidewalks, sixteen feet (16’) over travel lanes, or clearances specified by Division Landscape Supervisor. iv. Over landscape areas and sidewalks, limbs should be shortened or removed to allow for pedestrian and utility use. v. Trees within planting beds, an eight foot (8’) clearance is required or as directed by the Division Landscape Supervisor. vi. Shortening of branching is the desired method of attaining adequate clearance. vii. When pruning is completed, approximately one-half (1/3) of the foliage should originate from branches on the lower two-thirds (2/3) of each tree. 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. i. This type of pruning is done to minimize the risk of failure, to reduce height or spread, for utility line clearance, to clear vegetation from buildings, or structures, or to improve the appearance of the plant. Portions of the crown, such as individual limbs, can be reduced to balance the canopy, provide clearance, or reduce the likelihood of breakage on limbs with defects. Occasionally, the entire crown is reduced. ii. Reducing or thinning should be considered if cabling would be performed. Crown reduction should be accomplished with reduction cuts, not heading cuts. 1.2.1.2. Category 2. Structural Tree Pruning Structural tree pruning is the removal of live branches and stems to influence orientation, spacing, growth rate, the strength of attachment, and ultimate size of branches and stems. The removal percentage is between 25 – 50 percent depending on the tree type. Structural pruning includes basic tree pruning techniques listed below. Note: Refer to Best Management Practices “Tree Pruning” (Revised 2008) Companion Publication to ANSI A300 Part I: Tree, Shrub, and Other Woody Plant Maintenance- Standard Practices, Pruning: page 12 Figure 7. “Structural Pruning of a Small Tree” and Figure 8. ”Structural Pruning to be done to ensure more sustainable growth patterns.” a. It is used on young and medium-aged trees to help engineer a sustainable trunk and branch arrangement. Pruning large-maturing trees such as oaks reduce certain defects and spaces main branching along one dominant trunk. b. One goal is to reduce the number of trunks so that a tree has a dominant leader extending well up into the crown creating a strong crown and durable form. c. Subordination can reduce branches, so they remain smaller than about half the trunk diameter, which helps prevent structural failure later. The subordinate or co- dominant stems are removed with structural pruning. d. The primary objective insubordination (shortening using a drop-crotch cut) is the removal of one side of a codominant leader. i. Branches, trunks, or leaders not considered the main leader, two inches (2”) diameter or as determined by the Project Manager or designee should be subordinated or removed. ii. The main leader shall not be subordinated or removed. Codominant leaders are considered to be two or more branches, trunks, or leaders of approximately the same size, originating near one another. iii. If there is no stem considerably larger than others, then this would be appropriate to subordinate all but one of them. Division Landscape Supervisor approval where there is an included bark as part of the condition, preference should be given to the removal of one side. 16.A.9.b Packet Pg. 476 Attachment: 18-7254 Attachment A Scope of Services (5405 : ITB No. 18-7254 Airport Pulling Rd Landscape Maintenance) ITB #18-7254 Airport Pulling Road Landscape Maintenance 11 1.2.1.3. Category 3. Palm Pruning Remove fronds, flowers, fruit, stems, or loose petioles that may create hazardous conditions. Palms may be pruned for aesthetic reasons to eliminate sprouts and stems or dead fronds and seed pods. a. 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. b. Only those fronds with petiole drooping below horizontal 9:00-3:00 position should be removed. Remove seed pods including those originating among remaining fronds. When removing fronds and seedpods, care should be taken, so those frond that are to remain are not nicked or wounded. c. Climbing spikes shall not be used to climb palms for pruning. 1.2.1.4. Category 4. Stump and Root Grinding Contractor must have technical knowledge, ability, and experience in grinding of stumps and roots to remove the root system and stump. 1.2.1.5. Root Management Must possess a thorough knowledge and experience in root management, to include but not limited to air spade, structural pruning, diagnosis, and root management program. 1.2.1.6. Palm Management Contractor shall have the knowledge and ability to treat palm diseases through drenches, foliar sprays, injection methods, and provide a fertilization program for palms. 1.2.1.7. Tree Relocation Periodically, the County must relocate palms and trees within Collier County limits. Contractor must have the knowledge and ability to root prune the tree(s) before relocation. In most cases, Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) will be required in order to perform this work safely. Most in-depth information will be provided at the time that services are needed. 1.2.2. Fertilization Follow UF/IFAS guidelines for turfgrass fertilization. Contractor/subcontractor must have valid licenses issued by Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services for Limited Urban Commercial Fertilizer Applicator Certification (FDACS LUFAC). a. Provide fertilization services four (4) times a year in March, June, September, and December. Only twice (2) a year if using six (6) month application rate. b. Contractor shall ensure that fertilization scheduling does not exceed the fertilizer label rate prescribed and complies with state and local ordinances. It is important to note that local fertilizer regulations may prohibit the use of nitrogen fertilizers during the summer months. c. Division Representative may request additional fertilizer applications at any time. d. Applied at a rate of 1.5 lbs. per 100 square feet. e. Broadcasted throughout the median planting beds and turf areas. f. All tree pit areas should be fertilized evenly. g. No fertilizer ring around trees under any circumstances. If a ring is formed, contractor/subcontractor is required to return to the site and spread the fertilizer correcting the situation at their expense. This may include contractor/subcontractor purchasing additional fertilizer because applied fertilizer may not be able to spread. h. Fertilizer is purchased by Collier County under an Annual Contract and coordinated with the Contractor for delivery purposes. i. Immediately remove fertilizers from curbs and sidewalk areas to avoid staining. 16.A.9.b Packet Pg. 477 Attachment: 18-7254 Attachment A Scope of Services (5405 : ITB No. 18-7254 Airport Pulling Rd Landscape Maintenance) ITB #18-7254 Airport Pulling Road Landscape Maintenance 12 1.2.2.1. Fertilization Applications Contractor/subcontractor shall use deflector shields on all application equipment to minimize the inadvertent application of fertilizer on non-plant areas. Contractor shall blow, sweep, or wash back into the landscape any fertilizer deposited on paved or impervious surfaces. a. Use “Ring of Responsibility” around or along the shoreline of canals, lakes, or waterways. b. Ensure fertilizers and other lawn chemicals do not come into direct contact with the water. c. Apply fertilizer only when plants are actively growing. d. Clean up spilled fertilizer materials immediately as per University of Florida IFAS recommendations. e. Store nitrate-based fertilizers separately from solvents, fuels, and pesticides, because nitrate fertilizers are oxidants and can accelerate a fire. f. After fertilizing (other than when watering restrictions apply), irrigate with at least a quarter inch (1/4”) of water following fertilization to avoid the loss of nitrogen and increase uptake efficiency. If water restrictions apply, the contractor may irrigate as permitted but no more than one-half inch (1/2”) following fertilization. g. Do not exceed the annual nitrogen recommendations in the Fertilizer Guidelines for Established Turfgrass Lawns in Three Regions of Florida as provided on the label. 1.2.2.2.

Broadcast fertilizer uniformly over all the landscaped areas, and consider root location, fertilization objectives, and plant species when applying fertilizer. b. In areas where tree or shrub fertilization zones overlap with lawn fertilization zones, contractor shall fertilize one or the other of the plant types, but not both. 1.2.2.3. Palm Fertilization Palms have different nutritional requirements from other landscape plants. They suffer quickly and conspicuously from inadequate mineral nutrition, whether due to insufficient or incorrect fertilization. Division’s Landscape Supervisor will provide the fertilization schedule. Note: Fertilize palms with a granular slow-release fertilizer three to four times per year. An acceptable formulation is 8-0-12-4 (N, P, K, Mg plus micro-elements). 1.2.2.4. Turf Fertilization Notify Division Landscape Supervisor of any plant or turfgrass nutrient deficiency symptoms and provide the recommended measures for correction. a. Treat deficiencies of specific nutrients with applications of the lacking nutrient in accordance with University of Florida IFAS recommendations until deficiencies are corrected, or as directed from Division Landscape Supervisor. Must have prior approval. b. The number of applications of fertilizer depends on the type of plant material. Apply the minimal amount of fertilizer needed, or as directed from Division Landscape Supervisor. c. Adjust fertilizer rates according to health, maturity, and desired growth patterns. 16.A.9.b Packet Pg. 478 Attachment: 18-7254 Attachment A Scope of Services (5405 : ITB No. 18-7254 Airport Pulling Rd Landscape Maintenance) ITB #18-7254 Airport Pulling Road Landscape Maintenance 13 1.2.2.5.

Payment will be made upon receipt of a proper invoice and upon approval by the County's Contract Administrative Agent/Project Manager, and in compliance with Chapter 218, Fla.

Florida Certified Arborist on staff to supervise and direct Geld personnel to ensure that work is completed per specifications to include, but not limited to, palm and tree maintenance services, tree and palm planting and staking, stump, and root grinding. d. ISA Best Management Practices e. 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 fruit production; G) improve views; and 7) improve aesthetics. 1,2.1. Tree and Palm Maintenance is divided into four (4) categories: ].Basic. Tree Pruning; 2. Structural Tree Pruning; 3. Palm Pruning; 4. Stump and Root Grinding, 1.2.1.1. Category I . Basic Tree Pruning In accordance with ISA Best Management Practices, this category is divided into four (4) primary pruning methods which include: a. Cleaning, b, Thinning, c, Raising, and d. Reducing, a, Cleaning Cleaning trees is the selective removal ofdead, diseased, cracked, stubbed, hanging, and broken branches. This service can be perFormed on trees of any age but is most common on middle-aged and mature trees. This is the preferred method for mature trees because it does not remove live branches unnecessarily. The removal location of branches requires review and approval with Division's Landscape Supervisor. b. Thinning Pruning 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. i. Thinning includes removing dead or broken limbs one inch (I") in diameter or larger; if two (2) limbs are crowning or touching each other, shorten or remove one of them, originate within twelve inches (12") of each other on the trunk, shorten or remove one of them, ij, Use directional pruning, so future growth is directed away from the roadway, sidewalk, building, street lights, or possible obstruction. iii. Thinning increases the sunlight penetration and air movement throughout the crown and with increased light and air stimulate, it aids in maintaining interior foliage. iv. No excessive branch removal on the lower two-thirds (213) of a branch or stem (lion tailing). This may cause adverse affects on the tree and is not an acceptable practice. v. Thinning crown requires approval by Division Landscape Supervisor, and the percentage of foliage must be specified. The removal percentage is between ton - fifteen percent (10%-15%) percent, and should not exceed 25 percent (25%) of the foliage when using pruning to thin methods, c. Raisins; Pruning to raise, elevate, or lift tree canopy by selective removal of branches to provide vertical clearance. i. Crown raising shortens or removes lower branches of a tree to provide clearance for buildings, signs, vehicles, pedestrians, and vistas. Live crown to clear trunk ratio should be no less than 50 percent when raising is completed. H. Structural pruning should be considered with raising according to ANSI standards. When raising, the desired clearance should be specified by Division Landscape Supervisor. 1'f B At 8-7254 Airport Pulling Road l,n dwape Mainterimce 9 iii. Branches over paved areas should be shortened or removed to allow approximately ten foot (10') over sidewalks, sixteen feet (16') over travel lanes, or clearances specified by Division Landscape Supervisor. iv. Over landscape areas and sidewalks, limbs should be, shortened or removed to allow for pedestrian and utility use. v. Trees within planting beds, an eight foot (8') clearance is required or as directed by the Division Landscape Supervisor. vi. Shortening of branching is the desired method of attaining adequate clearance. vii. When pruning is completed, approximately one-half (1/3) of the foliage should originate from branches on the lower two-thirds (213) of each tree. d, Re ucin Pruning to reduce is the selective removal of branches and stems to decrease the height and/or spread of a tree or shrub. i. this type of pruning is done to minimize the risk of failure, to reduce height or spread, For utility line clearance, to clear vegetation from buildings, or structures, or to improve the appearance of the plant. Portions ofthe crown, such as individual limbs, can be reduced to balance the canopy, provide clearance, or reduce the likelihood of breakage on limbs with defects. Occasionally, the entire crown is reduced. ii, Reducing or thinning should be considered if cabling would be performed. Crown reduction should be accomplished with reduction cuts, not heading cuts. 1.2. l .2. Category 2, Structural "Cr e,_P kinirig Structural tree pruning is the removal of live branches and stems to influence orientation, spacing, growth rate, the strength of attachment, and ultimate size of branches and stems. The removal percentage is between 25 — 50 percent depending on the tree type. Structural pruning includes basic tree pruning techniques listed below. Note; Refer to Best Management Practices "Tree Pruning" (Devised 2008) Companion Publication to ANSI A300 Part l: Tree, Shrub, and Other Woody Plant Maintenance - Standard Practices, Pruning: page 12 Figure 7. "Structural Pruning of a Small Tree" and Figure S. "Structural Pruning to be done to ensure more sustainable growth patterns." a. It is used on young and medium -aged trees to help engineer a sustainable trunk and branch arrangement. Pruning large -maturing trees such as oaks reduce certain defects and spaces main branching along one dominant trunk. b. One goal is to reduce the number of trunks so that a tree has a dominant leader extending well up into the crown creating a strong crown and durable form. c. Subordination can reduce branches, so they remain smaller than about half the trunk diameter, which helps prevent structural failure later. The subordinate or co- dominant stems are removed with structural pruning. d, The primary objective insubordination (shortening using a drop -crotch cut) is the removal of one side of a codominant leader. i. Branches, trunks, or leaders not considered the main leader, two inches (2") diameter or as determined by the Project Manager or designee should be subordinated or removed, ii. The main leader shall not be subordinated or removed. Codominant leaders are considered to be two or more branches, trunks, or leaders of approximately the same size, originating near one another_ iii. If there is no stem considerably larger than others, then this would be appropriate to subordinate all but one of them. Division landscape Supervisor approval where there is an included bark as part of the condition, preference should be given to the removal of one side, 17'13 # 18-7254 Airport fulling head Landscape Maintenance l o T 1.2.1.3. Categ_oa 3. Palm Pruning Remove fronds, flowers, fruit, stems, or loose petioles that may create hazardous conditions. Palms may be pruned for aesthetic reasons to eliminate sprouts and stems or dead fronds and seed pods. EL. 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. b. Only those fronds with petiole drooping below horizontal 9:00-3:170 position should be removed. Remove seed pods including those originating among remaining fronds, When removing fronds and seedpods, care should be taken, so those frond that are to remain are not nicked or wounded. c. Climbing spikes shall not be used to climb palms for pruning. 1.2.1.4. Categoa 4.
