Introduction
You contacted me and contracted my services as a consulting arborist. My assignment is to
inspect the regulated trees at the above referenced site. The purpose of this report is to
establish the condition of the significant trees to satisfy City of Renton permit submittal
requirements.
I received a topographic survey from Core Design. I visited the site 10/11/2017and visually
inspected the trees indicated on the attached survey, which are the subject of this report.
Summary:
The following table summarizes the tree quantities and categories inventoried in this report.
Significant, Landmark and Dangerous categories are defined by municipal code.
Total Significant Trees On Site 58
Landmark Trees On Site 0
Dangerous Trees On Site 21
(Proposed) ROW Trees 12
Offsite Trees 1

Data for 1 offsite tree (#8136) is also included in this report.
The site is relatively flat. A single-family residence is located at the west of the parcel, near
116th Ave SE. A handful of native conifers and fruit trees surround the house.
The remaining portion is covered in native growth deciduous trees, and a mix of invasive
brambles and understory shrubs. Very few of these deciduous trees are healthy: most are in
an obvious state of decline and failure. Additionally, though the site looks heavily forested,
most trees are too small, and are not of a regulated size.
LIMITATIONS AND USE OF THIS REPORT
This tree report establishes, via the most practical means available, the existing conditions
of the trees on the subject property. Ratings for health and structure, as well as any
recommendations are valid only through the development and construction process. This
report is based solely on what is readily visible and observable, without any invasive means.
There are several conditions that can affect a tree’s condition that may be pre-existing and
unable to be ascertained with a visual-only analysis. No attempt was made to determine the
presence of hidden or concealed conditions which may contribute to the risk or failure
potential of trees on the site. These conditions include root and stem (trunk) rot, internal
cracks, structural defects or construction damage to roots, which may be hidden beneath
the soil. Additionally, construction and post-construction circumstances can cause a
relatively rapid deterioration of a tree’s condition.
IDENTIFICATION SCHEME
Each tree was marked with a 1” x 3.5” aluminum tag indicating tree number as listed on the
attached inventory, and as shown on the attached exhibit.
SPECIES AND SIZE OF EACH TREE
I measured the trunk diameters (54” from grade) of each tree, and identified each tree by
common name.
REASON(S) FOR ANY TREE REMOVAL
I rated the health and structure/form of each tree (see attached inventory and description
below). Trees with significant visible problems or defects are indicated as Dangerous and
are not viable for retention (dead, terminally diseased, damaged, or otherwise dangerous to
persons or property).

TREE INSPECTION METHOD – TREE HEALTH, CONDITION AND VIABILITY
I visually inspected each tree from the ground. I performed a Level 1 risk assessment.1 This
is the standard assessment for populations of trees near specified targets, conducted in
order to identify obvious defects or specified conditions such as a pre-development
inventory. This is a limited visual assessment focuses on identifying trees with imminent
and/or probable likelihood of failure, and/or other visible conditions that will affect tree
retention.
I recorded tree species and size (DBH). I estimated the average dripline of each tree. I rated
the condition of each tree, both health and structure. A tree’s structure is distinct from its
health. This inspection identifies what is visible with both.
High-risk trees can appear healthy in that they can have a dense, green canopy. This may
occur when there is sufficient sapwood or adventitious roots present to maintain tree
health, but inadequate strength for structural support.
Conversely, trees in poor health may or may not be structurally stable. For example, tree
decline due to root disease is likely to cause the tree to be structurally unstable, while
decline due to drought or insect attack may not.
One way that tree health and structure are linked is that healthy trees are more capable of
compensating for structural defects. A healthy tree can develop adaptive growth that adds
strength to parts weakened by decay, cracks, and wounds.
This report identifies unhealthy trees based on existing health conditions and tree structure,
and specifies which trees are most suitable for preservation.2
No invasive procedures were performed on any trees. The results of this inspection are
based on what was visible at the time of the inspection.
The attached tree inventory contains the following information on each tree.
Proposed Action indicates if the tree is proposed for retention or removal.
Retention Priority indicates if tree is Landmark, >60’ tall, part of a continuous
canopy, >18” DBH, or is non-native.

having one dominant trunk, or, for certain species, a multi-stemmed trunk system,
with a potential minimum height of ten feet (10') at maturity. Any trees listed on the
Complete King County Weed List shall not qualify as a tree.)
Dangerous: Any tree that has been certified, in a written report, as dead,
terminally diseased, damaged, or otherwise dangerous to persons or property
by a licensed landscape architect, or certified arborist.
Landmark: A tree with a caliper of thirty inches (30") or greater. (Multiple-
stemmed trees are reported as the average using a single integer.)
Significant: A tree with a caliper of at least six inches (6"), or an alder or
cottonwood tree with a caliper of at least eight inches (8"). Trees qualified as
dangerous shall not be considered significant. Trees planted within the most
recent ten (10) years shall qualify as significant trees, regardless of the actual
caliper.
Trees within the right-of-way (and proposed ROW) are not categorized.
There are no landmark trees on the project site.
Tree number as shown on the attached site exhibit.
DBH Stem (trunk) diameter in inches 4.5 feet from grade.
Tree Species Common name.
Dripline Average branch extension in feet as radius from the trunk.
Health & Structure Rating ‘1’ indicates good to excellent condition; no visible health-
related problems or structural defects; ‘2’ indicates fair condition; minor visible
problems or defects that may require attention or maintenance if the tree is
retained, and/or the tree should only remain as a grove tree, and not stand alone;
and ‘3’ indicates poor condition; significant visible problems or defects and tree
removal is recommended.
Visible Defects Obvious structural defects or diseases visible at time of inspection,
including:
Asymmetric canopy– the tree has an asymmetric canopy from space and light
competition from adjacent trees.
Branch dieback - mature branches in canopy are dying/dead.
Crack – separation of wood fibers and predisposed to failure.
Dead – tree is dead.
Deadwood – large and/or multiple dead branches throughout canopy.
Decay – process of wood degradation by microorganisms resulting in weak
and defective structure.
Diseased – foliage and trunk/stems are diseased.

Dogleg in trunk – trunk with a bow or defective bend (90°) in trunk often half
way of further up the trunk.
Double leader – the tree has multiple stem attachments, which may require
maintenance or monitoring over time.
Included bark – an inclusion of bark at the attachment of multiple leaders and
is preventing a wood-to-wood attachment
Ivy - dense ivy prevents a thorough inspection, and other defects may be
present.
Multiple leaders - the tree has multiple stem attachments, which may lead to
tree failure and require maintenance or monitoring over time.
Previous failure – tree trunk previously broken and defective.
Slender – tree lacks adequate trunk taper to stand lone.
Sweep in trunk – characterized by a leaning lower trunk and a more upright
top.
Suppressed – tree crowded by larger adjacent trees; with defective structure
and/or low vigor. Retain tree only as a grove tree, not stand-alone.
Sweep – tree leans away from adjacent trees. Characterized by a leaning
lower trunk and a top that is more upright.
Topped – the tree is previously topped and has poor structure and/or stem
decay.
Type indicates if tree is Deciduous (D) or Evergreen (E).
Viability - a determination by the arborist whether the tree is viable for retention.
LIMITS OF DISTURBANCE
Limits of Disturbance (LOD) are calculated for all the retained significant trees (and for trees
on adjoining parcels with overhanging driplines). They are listed below as radii in feet from
the trunk for the side of the tree to be impacted by construction. They are determined using
rootplate 3 and trunk diameter,4,5 and ISA Best Management Practices.6 These are the
minimum distances from the trees for any soil disturbance, and represent the area to be
protected during construction. These LOD are malleable and may be adjusted during the
design and construction process. The following table lists the limits of disturbance of each
tree.

The attached Tree Retention Plan provides protection that exceeds these established LOD.
Protective fencing is erected at the tree’s dripline, which is a greater distance for all retained
trees.
SUPPLEMENTAL TREES
Supplemental trees are required and will include 32 three-inch caliper trees. Replacement
Are shown on the attached Preliminary Landscape Plan.
TREE RETENTION AND LAND CLEARING REGULATIONS
4.4.130 §H.9. Protection Measures During Construction: Protection measures in this
subsection shall apply for all trees that are to be retained. All of the following tree protection
measures shall apply:
a. Construction Storage Prohibited: The applicant may not fill, excavate, stack or store any
equipment, dispose of any materials, supplies or fluids, operate any equipment, install
impervious surfaces, or compact the earth in any way within the area defined by the
drip line of any tree to be retained.
b. Fenced Protection Area Required: Prior to development activities, the applicant shall erect
and maintain six-foot (6') high chain link temporary construction fencing around the
drip lines of all retained trees or at a distance surrounding the tree equal to one and
one-quarter feet (1.25') for every one inch (1") of trunk caliper, whichever is greater,
or along the perimeter of a tree protection tract. Placards shall be placed on fencing
every fifty feet (50') indicating the words, “NO TRESPASSING – Protected Trees,” or on
each side of the fencing if less than fifty feet (50'). Site access to individually protected
trees or groups of trees shall be fenced and signed. Individual trees shall be fenced on
four (4) sides. In addition, the applicant shall provide supervision whenever
equipment or trucks are moving near trees.

c. Protection from Grade Changes: If the grade level adjoining to a tree to be retained is to
be raised, the applicant shall construct a dry rock wall or rock well around the tree.
The diameter of this wall or well must be equal to the tree’s drip line.
d. Impervious Surfaces Prohibited within the Drip Line: The applicant may not install
impervious surface material within the area defined by the drip line of any tree to be
retained.
e. Restrictions on Grading within the Drip Lines of Retained Trees: The grade level around
any tree to be retained may not be lowered within the greater of the following areas:
(i) the area defined by the drip line of the tree, or (ii) an area around the tree equal to
one and one-half feet (1-1/2') in diameter for each one inch (1") of tree caliper. A
larger tree protection zone based on tree size, species, soil, or other conditions may
be required. (Ord. 5676, 12-3-2012)
f. Mulch Layer Required: All areas within the required fencing shall be covered completely
and evenly with a minimum of three inches (3") of bark mulch prior to installation of
the protective fencing. Exceptions may be approved if the mulch will adversely affect
protected ground cover plants. (Ord. 5676, 12-3-2012)
g. Monitoring Required during Construction: The applicant shall retain a certified arborist or
licensed landscape architect to ensure trees are protected from development
activities and/or to prune branches and roots, fertilize, and water as appropriate for
any trees and ground cover that are to be retained.
h. Alternative Protection: Alternative safeguards may be used if determined to provide equal
or greater tree protection. (Ord. 5676, 12-3-2012)

Attachment No. 1 - Assumptions & Limiting Conditions
1. A field examination of the site was made 10/112/217. My observations and
conclusions are as of that date.
2. Care has been taken to obtain all information from reliable sources. All data has
been verified insofar as possible; however, the consultant/arborist can neither
guarantee nor be responsible for the accuracy of information provided by others.
3. I am not a qualified land surveyor. Reasonable care was used to match the trees
indicated on the sheets with those growing in the field.
4. Construction activities can significantly affect the condition of retained trees. All
retained trees should be inspected after construction is completed, and then
inspected regularly as part of routine maintenance.
5. Unless stated other wise: 1) information contained in this report covers only those
trees that were examined and reflects the condition of those trees at the time of
inspection; and 2) the inspection is limited to visual examination of the subject trees
without dissection, excavation, probing, or coring. There is no warranty or
guarantee, expressed or implied that problems or deficiencies of the subject tree
may not arise in the future.
6. All trees possess the risk of failure. Trees can fail at any time, with or without
obvious defects, and with or without applied stress. A complete evaluation of the
potential for this (a) tree to fail requires excavation and examination of the base of
the subject tree. Permission of the current property owner must be obtained before
this work can be undertaken and the hazard evaluation completed.
7. The consultant/appraiser shall not be required to give testimony or to attend court
by reason of this report unless subsequent contractual arrangements are made.
