No more than fifteen (15%) percent of live wood or foliage may be removed from the crown of any tree. All pruning cuts are to be made in such a manner as to favor wound closure by natural callus growth and special care is to be taken to leave the branch collar intact. Pruning shall be paid at the unit price for a tree measured at Diameter Breast Height (DBH). No pruning shall be made on trees over fifteen (15) inches DBH.

Structural Pruning is the removal of branches and stems to influence the orientation, spacing, growth rate, strength of attachment, and ultimate size of branches and stems. Structural pruning is used on young and medium-aged trees to encourage a sustainable trunk and branch arrangement. b. Crown Pruning or “cleaning out” is the removal of dead, diseased, crowded, weakly attached and low-vigor branches and water sprouts from the entirety of the tree crown. This type of pruning is done to reduce the risk of branches falling from the tree and to reduce the movement of decay, insects, and diseases from dead or dying branches into the rest of the tree. Cleaning is the preferred pruning type for mature trees. c. Crown Reduction is used to reduce the height and/or spread of a tree. Reduction is the selective removal of branches and stems to decrease the height and/or spread of a tree or shrub. This type of pruning is done to minimize the risk of failure, to reduce height or spread, for signal or street-light clearance, to clear vegetation from buildings or other structures, or to improve the appearance of the tree.

Tree Pruning. If pruning is necessary, leave trees should be pruned to a height of 4 - 16 feet, depending on overall tree height and specific treatment prescription. Specific treatment prescriptions identify desired pruning height. For those prescriptions with no set pruning height, a variable random approach is recommended for example: the first tree is pruned to 4 ft., the next at 8ft, the next at 5ft and the next 10 feet, etc. This will insure a lack of uniformity amongst leave trees.
