Acknowledgment: It is acknowledged by each party that the protection of trees is an important value that translates into conservation actions by the public utility operating under this agreement in Beaufort County. This agreement is intended to govern the conduct of the parties with respect to trees along existing and future utility lines or easements and with respect to the 2
3 construction of other facilities. It is further acknowledged that this agreement pertains only to trees under County jurisdiction. II. Definitions: County: The County of Beaufort. For the purpose of this agreement, the Beaufort County Planning Department shall be the lead agency for the issuing of approvals as stipulated under this agreement. Other County agencies or departments may be consulted depending on the nature of the proposed activities. Diameter at Breast Height (DBH): The total di.ameter, in inches, of a tree trunk or trunks, in the case of trees with multiple trucks, measured four and one-half (4 if2") inches above the natural grade. Specimen Tree: (l) This term applied to understory trees means as follows: dogwood, redbud, and southern magnolia greater than four inches dbh; (2) The term applied to canopy trees means as foljows: American holly, bald cypress, beech, black oak, black tupelo, cedar, hickory, live oak, palmetto, pecan, red maple, southern red oak, sycamore, or walnut with a dbh of greater than sixteen inches; (3) All other trees with a dbh oftwenty-four inches or greater. III. The Criteria to be Used in Judging Whether Certain Trees Should be Saved: As part of the planning process, the (the public utility), agrees to consider trees as a corporate asset and as such shall consider trees as a material factor in the layout, design and construction of utility lines and facilities. To determine which trees should be saved, the following factors shall be considered. (1) Size: Specimen trees are the most important trees and shall be protected unless unusual and unique circumstances make it impossible to do so. (2) Condition: In determining the condition of a tree, the presence of disease, decay, or insect infestation, effecting the survival of the tree shall be factor in deciding if tree (or trees) may be cut. In such matters, a county selected certified arborist shall be consulted in determining the health of a tree (or trees) involved in a tree-cutting plan. (3) Location: Trees located within view of existing or planned public rights-of-way or other public lands are deemed especially valuable and require protection. In addition, trees which define or frame man-made spaces (i.e., roads, fields, parks, etc.) or natural spaces (rivers, streams, marshes, wetlands, etc.) provide privacy or 3
4 ';";""~ _..-_--~~-~~ ". screen undesirable views, are also deemed valuable and shall be preserved to the greatest extent feasible. (4) Species: Trees considered as having high value relative to other species include all species of oak, magnolia, bay, holly, elm, cypress, spruce pine, and palmetto. Such trees in good condition shall be preserved in the greatest extent feasible. (5) Root Protection: The majority of tree health problems can be traced to belowgrow1d causes. Therefore, it is essential to specifically underscore the existence of root zones and provide and plan for their protection. IV. The Standards for Protecting Trees: (1) Utility pruning shall be initiated with proper notification to the Beaufort County Planning Department. The point of contact within the Beaufort COW1ty Planning Department shall be the Natural Resources Planner. Pruning cycles will be conducted every four years with critical areas handled every two years or as necessary to maintain line clearance.

If the Planning Department does not respond within fifteen (15) working days after notification, then permission shall automatically be granted for removal of the trees. If the County denies a request, it must give the reasons, in writing, for its denial. (4) Contact and coordination will be required by the public uti lity with the Beaufort County Planning Department prior to any line clearing and/or pruning-affecting trees is to commence. Area maps shall be provided by public utility with the designated streets, easements, or rights-of-way marked for COW1ty review.

5 (2) Where ever major construction is proposed within Beaufort County, the PlaIUling Director or his designee shall review the site plans with regard to the impact thereof on specimen trees, on areas containing highly valuable trees as defined in this agreement. No major construction shall be undertaken without the written approval of the Beaufort County Planning Director. Enforcement of this agreement shall be set forth in the Beaufort County Zoning and Development Standards Ordinance. VI. Mitigation: (1) Landscaping and other measures are recognized as valuable techniques to help mitigate the adverse impacts of removing trees for construction or maintenance. Mitigation shall be required as a condition for approving the removal of specimen street trees that are in good health. (3) Mitigation includes the planting of canopy trees, shrubs or understory trees to screen views along cleared rights-of-way or easements. The mitigation plan as a requirement for the issuance of a permit for tree removal must present a tree planting schedule for each location that specifies the type and quantity of each tree or shrub specimen proposed for planting. VII. Emergency Provisions: (1) In times of emergency when the safety of people or property is endangered due to thunderstorms, tornado, fire, ice, etc., specimen trees may be removed without prior approval of the County Planning Director.
