Each estimate shall include the species, size, number and price of the replacement trees. No reduction in the required number of replacements trees shall exceed ½ of the original number of replacement trees required by the formula in this section. No reductions will be granted as to the number of replacement trees required by Table B. G. Regulations pertaining to delineation of clearing limits. (1) The clearing limits shown on the replacement plan shall be fully established prior to the cutting of permitted forest acreage and shall be defined by snow fencing firmly secured along the dripline but not less than six (6) feet from the trunk of the remaining trees. In a like manner, specimen trees and isolated groupings of trees which are to remain on the site shall be clearly protected by snow fencing or an equally visible and protective device installed along the dripline of the tree(s) but not less than six feet from the tree trunk(s). (2) The grade of the land located along the dripline shall not be raised or lowered more than six inches, unless compensated by welling or retaining wall methods, and in no event shall the welling or retaining wall methods be less than six (6) feet from the trunk of the tree. (3) No soil stockpiling, storage of building materials or equipment operation shall be permitted within the dripline or within six (6) feet of any remaining trees, whichever is greater. (4) Any clearing within the dripline or within six (6) feet of the trunk of a remaining tree must be done by hand or with hand-operated equipment. (5) Where clearing and/or construction on the site results in accidental removal or severe damage which will eventually result in death and removal of any tree delineated in the replacement plan as remaining on the site, such removed or damaged tree shall be replaced on a one-for-one bases (using trees with a minimum DBH of 2-1/2 inches) for accidentally removed or damaged trees which have a DBH from six (6) inches to less than sixteen (16) inches. The species or type of replacement trees shall be selected from a list maintained by the Environmental Commission or shall be the same as the species removed from the tract under consideration.
