Only the numbered trees in this report have been examined. This report reflects the condition of the trees at the time of the site visit. There is no warranty or guarantee, expressed or implied that problems or deficiencies of the subject tree may not arise in the future. 2. All trees may 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 required excavation and examination of the base of the subject tree. Sincerely, Jeff M.
