Arborist Report
Alexis and Nick Gibson
(971) 279-0741
13665 SW Fern St
Tigard, OR 97223
This Arborist report is in response to the proposed removal of two Douglas fir
trees in the backyard at 13665 SW Fern St Tigard, OR 97223. I visited the site 12:30 p.m.
July 31, 2017. I met on site with the property owner of the above mention address, Nick
Gibson.
Tree Inventory
After visiting the site and hearing some background on the two Douglas firs in
question and the recent failure of a tree within a short proximity to the potential removals,
I examined the trees. The first Douglas fir is 51" in diameter at breast height and is
located on the northwest side of the property near the center of the fence line. The tree
had stems and a very aggressive V-shape. I determined my DBH calculation by adding
the largest stem to '/2 of the other stems diameter. This makes these much more
susceptible to wind. The second fir is 18" in diameter at breast height. This fir has severe
damage to the root zone because it was entangled with a tree that previously failed. The
ground around this root area is severely dry and visibly cracking. The Douglas first are
not enough to any surrounding trees to have an impact if it were to be removed. The
condition of the trees surveyed is indicated as being Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor, Very
Poor or Dead. Trees rated as Very Good are prime specimens with no visible defects.
Trees rated as good may have minor defects but are stable trees in good health. Trees
rated as Fair usually contain at least one visible defect that may become significant
sometime in the future. Poor trees contain at least significant one visible defect that may
be structural or cosmetic. Poor trees usually display reduced vigor and may be candidates
for removal. Trees rated as Very Poor contain significant defects that are hazardous, or
near hazardous and are recommended for removal.
ID Common Species DBH Condition Comments
Name
1 Douglas Fir Pseudotsuga 51" Fair Canopy is in fair
menziesii condition however
significant structural
defects in severe V
shape and dry loose
root zone.
2 Douglas Fir Psuedotsuga 18" Poor Canopy is healthy
menziesii however is fair
however root zone is
weak and is a potential
hazard.
Conclusion
After a review of the proposed removal plan, and personally visiting the site, I
have concluded that the two Douglas firs in the above-mentioned table to be potentially
hazardous and I do not see any negative impact if the tree were to be removed.
Sincerely,
Adam Kinyon
