The requirements of the arboricultural report include; • To provide information on the species, origin, dimensions, health and structure of the trees and their appropriateness for retention; • Determine the Tree Protection Zones (TPZ) for trees compliant with AS4970 ‘Protection of trees on development sites’; • Provide appropriate tree management recommendations with regard to potential development at the site. 2 Method 2.1 A site inspection was carried out on Thursday 21 February 2019. 2.2 The trees were inspected from the ground and observations were made of the growing environment and surrounding area. The trees were not climbed, and no samples of the tree or soil were taken. 2.3 Observations were made of the assessed trees to determine the species, age category, and condition with measurements taken to establish tree crown height (measured with a height meter) and crown width (paced) and trunk dimensions. Descriptors used in the assessment can be seen in Appendix 3. Where trees were on neighbouring properties, estimations were made on some measurements. 2.4 Assessment details of individual trees are listed in Appendix 1 and a copy of the tree location plan can be seen in Appendix 2. 2.5 Each of the assessed trees was attributed an ‘Arboricultural Rating’. The arboricultural rating correlates the combination of tree condition factors (health and structure) with tree amenity value. Definitions of arboricultural ratings can be seen in Appendix 3. 2.6 The assessed trees have been allocated tree protection zones (TPZ). The Australian Standard, AS 4970-2009, has been used as a guide in the allocation of TPZs for the assessed trees. This method provides a TPZ that addresses both the stability and growing requirements of a tree. TPZ distances are measured as a radius, from the centre of the trunk at (or near) ground level. All TPZ measurements for are provided in Appendix 1.

The site contained wide open spaces, an existing single storey brick building and the remnants of previous campus buildings which had since been demolished. Most trees were evenly spaced and scattered throughout the entire site. Refer to Figure 1 below for an indication of the study area. Figure 1: Aerial view showing the extents of the study area. Tree population 3.2 One hundred and seventy-one (171) individual trees were formally assessed within the nominated study area. This included forty-five (45) council managed street trees on the periphery of the site. • Individual tree details are provided in Appendix 1; • Refer to Appendix 2 for tree numbers and locations. 3.3 Tree group features were recorded where trees were found to be closely grown, of the same species, a similar size and condition which did not warrant detailed individual assessment. 3.4 Approximately sixty-six (66) trees were inspected and collected as four (4) tree group features with data including primary species, number of trees within the group, and average records of trunk and tree dimensions, health and structural condition and arboricultural value. Treelogic Pty Ltd Unit 4, 21 Eugene Terrace Ringwood VIC 3134 Tree Report │ 2 Osborne Street, Flora Hill 4 3.5 The tree population comprised a palette of forty-four (44) different species, including a wide variety of exotic species planted for garden and amenity purposes, introduced Australian and Victorian native specimens, and large naturally occurring trees which were indigenous to the local area. 3.6 The most prevalent species on site were River Red Gum (Eucalyptus camaldulensis) and Grey Box (Eucalyptus microcarpa), making up 29% of the population. See Table 1 below for a breakdown of the six (6) most commonly occurring species. Table 1: Breakdown of the most commonly occurring species. Species Origin Count Eucalyptus camaldulensis Victorian 26 (River Red Gum) native/indigenous Eucalyptus microcarpa Indigenous 24 (Grey Box) Cotoneaster sp. Exotic evergreen 8 (Cotoneaster) Fraxinus ‘Raywood’ Exotic deciduous 8 (Claret Ash) Eucalyptus melliodora Victorian native 7 (Yellow Box) Eucalyptus nicholii Australian native 7 (Narrow-leaved Peppermint) 3.7 Tree health was assessed based on foliage colour, size and density as well as shoot initiation and elongation. • The majority of assessed trees (125 trees) were displaying characteristics considered to be typical or better of the species growing in this environment under current conditions; • Twenty-one (21) trees were in Fair to poor health with symptoms including reduced foliage density and suppressed growing environment; • Twenty-five (25) trees were in a state of decline, with deficiencies including extensive crown dieback. 3.8 Tree structure was assessed for structural defects and deficiencies, likelihood of failures and risk to potential targets. • The majority of the assessed trees (93 trees) displayed Fair structure in terms of primary branching arrangement and architecture; • Sixty-four (64) trees displayed Fair to poor structure with defects such as previous failures and acute forks; • Twelve (12) trees displayed Poor structure; • Two (2) trees had Very Poor structure. Treelogic Pty Ltd Unit 4, 21 Eugene Terrace Ringwood VIC 3134 Tree Report │ 2 Osborne Street, Flora Hill 5 3.9 Arboricultural Rating The assessed trees were attributed with an arboricultural rating. This rating relates to the combination of tree condition factors, including health and structure (arboricultural merit), and also conveys an amenity value. Amenity relates to the trees biological, functional and aesthetic characteristics within an urban landscape context. It should be noted that the arboricultural rating is different to the conservation, ecological or heritage values placed on trees by other professions. Definitions of arboricultural ratings can be seen in Appendix 3. Arb. Rating 3% 4% High 9% Mod. A Mod. B 37% Mod. C 38% Low None 9% Figure 2: Breakdown of arboricultural ratings. Trees with a High rating were in excellent to good condition, were a prominent arboricultural/landscape feature and may have significant conservation or other cultural value. Retention of these trees is highly desirable. • Five (5) trees were attributed an arboricultural rating of High. Trees with a Moderate A rating were in good to fair condition and were a prominent arboricultural/landscape feature. Retention of these trees is highly desirable. • Fifteen

  • NZDFI Wood Quality Research Plan
    Section 2: NZDFI Wood Quality Research Plan 1 Background NZDFI aims to establish a new hardwood forest industry based on naturally durable eucalypts. NZDFI has identified sustainably-grown naturally durable posts and poles for the agricultural industry as key products as an alternative to CCA treated pine (Millen, 2009). For these products natural durability is essential. The timber of these eucalypt species also has a high Modulus of Elasticity (MoE). A second targeted product is high stiffness LVL. These products can be produced from short- rotation smaller diameter trees. As these timbers also have attractively coloured heartwood, high quality appearance grade solid timber products are also a possibility if trees are grown on a longer rotation to a larger size. To ensure a quality product the variability in these properties can be reduced by genetic selection. Furthermore the trees must be easy to process, which requires trees with low growth-stresses and a low level of drying defects. NZDFI’s wood quality research programme addresses these problems to facilitate a viable hardwood forest industry based on naturally durable eucalypts. Some research work is financed through SWP (MBIE) while other work is funded through SFF (MPI) and other sources. Wood quality is a key research theme alongside other essential areas such as tree health, tree growth, propagation and forest management. 2 Natural durability Wood is a bio-material and biodegradable. Biodegradability is a positive attribute when considering the disposal at the end of a product’s life. However, susceptibility of wood to decay by organisms can result in premature product failure.

  • ABSTRACT the First Through Fifth Instars of the Gypsy Moth Were Tested for Development to Adults on 326 Species of Dicotyledonous Plants in Laboratory Feeding Trials
    LABORATORY FEEDING TESTS ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF GYPSY MOTH LARVAE WITH REFERENCE TO PLANT TAXA AND ALLELOCHEMICALS JEFFREY C. MILLER and PAUL E. HANSON DEPARTMENT OF ENTOMOLOGY, OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY, CORVALLIS, OREGON 97331 ABSTRACT The first through fifth instars of the gypsy moth were tested for development to adults on 326 species of dicotyledonous plants in laboratory feeding trials. Among accepted plants, differences in suitability were documented by measuring female pupal weights. The majority of accepted plants belong to the subclasses Dilleniidae, Hamamelidae, and Rosidae. Species of oak, maple, alder, madrone, eucalyptus, poplar, and sumac were highly suitable. Plants belonging to the Asteridae, Caryophyllidae, and Magnoliidae were mostly rejected. Foliage type, new or old, and instar influenced host plant suitability. Larvae of various instars were able to pupate after feeding on foliage of 147 plant species. Of these, 1.01 were accepted by first instars. Larvae from the first through fifth instar failed to molt on foliage of 151 species. Minor feeding occurred on 67 of these species. In general, larvae accepted new foliage on evergreen species more readily than old foliage. The results of these trials were combined with results from three previous studies to provide data on feeding responses of gypsy moth larvae on a total of 658 species, 286 genera, and 106 families of dicots. Allelochemic compositions of these plants were tabulated from available literature and compared with acceptance or rejection by gypsy moth. Plants accepted by gypsy moth generally contain tannins, but lack alkaloids, iridoid monoterpenes, sesquiterpenoids, diterpenoids, and glucosinolates. 2 PREFACE This research was funded through grants from USDA Forest Service cooperative agreement no.
