Maintenance of natural areas.
A management plan submitted as part of the environmental management permit application
is required for all pre-development vegetation located on the site. No disturbance
of any pre-development vegetation or soils shall be permitted prior to the approval
of the management plan. Vegetation management shall be allowed for the purpose of
integrating pre-development vegetation both visually and physically into the site's
master landscape plan. Maintenance guidelines shall be required and provisions made
for any supplemental planting, if additional plantings are desired. Approved maintenance
activities include pruning of dead and hazardous tree limbs, planting, mulching, fertilization,
and pest control. Mechanical methods which compact the earth or impair root systems,
or the pruning of limbs greater than ten percent of the green mass of a tree are prohibited,
unless otherwise allowed in an approved management plan. Activities that would result
in a change in the vegetative composition of the forest community including removal
of native species and replacement by invasive/exotics, or the removal of understory
and ground cover are prohibited.
