Fall and Standing dead vegetation is present • Remove standing dead vegetation Spring • Replace dead vegetation within 30 days of reported dead and dying plants(as practical depending on weather/planting season) • If vegetation replacement is not feasible within 30 days,and absence of vegetation may result in erosion problems, temporary erosion control measures should be put in place immediately. • Determine cause of dead vegetation and address issue,if possible •If specific plants have a high mortality rate,assess the cause and replace with appropriate species.Consultation with a landscape architect is recommended. Fall and Planting beneath mature trees •When working around and below mature trees,follow the most current ANSI A300 standards and ISA BMPs to the extent Spring practicable(e.g.,take care to minimize any damage to tree roots and avoid compaction of soil). • Planting of small shrubs or groundcovers beneath mature trees may be desirable in some cases;such plantings should use mainly plants that come as bulbs,bare root or in 4-inch pots;plants should be in no larger than 1-gallon containers.
