  10. Unknown25/00009/TNCA

    The notification applies to the removal to ground level of a Robinia sp. identified in the report as T10. This tree is leaning towards a school portacabin at 45 degrees with a crack in the main stem at 2.5-3m and exudate present. My QTRA assessment is a failure probability of 1/1k-1/10k which necessitates action to remediate the risk. The tree is currently in direct contact with the extant school fencing, which needs to be upgraded to provide a more secure boundary (and which would necessitate the removal of this tree in any case).
