1 Slide 1 Urban Forests Building Resiliency to.atural Disasters Urban Sustainability Uirectors betwork (USUb) Cebruary 19, 2015 Dudley R. Hartel, Center Manager Athens, Georgia Urban Sustainability Directors' Network (USDN) Group Call Thursday, February 19, :00pm The call in information is below: Dial In Number (US): Participant Access Code: Urban Forests: Building Resiliency to Natural Disasters This presentation is designed for municipal managers in a wide range of professional disciplines. The presentation will discuss the key elements to urban forest resiliency and mitigation that can occur pre-storm or during recovery. Some ideas, concepts, and slides presented are attributed to Rachel Barker (formally with Central Alabama Regional Planning and Development Commission) who is now a utility arborist with ArborMetrics Solutions (transmission and distribution vegetation management services) based on work she did from and earlier as Deputy Director of Public Works in Columbus, Georgia. This included the Vegetation Risk Management Plan (VRMP) and the Urban Tree Risk Index (UTRI) GIS tool. Dudley Hartel Center Manager of in Athens,Georgia. is the Southern Region s urban & community forestry Technology Transfer Center which supports U&CF programs through state agencies and municipalities. This entire presentation with my notes are available for download from wwwurbanforestrysouth.org USDN Urban Forests - Resiliency and Response to Natural Disasters (18Feb15 v1.0).pdf In the search site box (base of page header on the right) type USDN for a list of downloads related to my presentation.

2 Slide 2 Present tion Cutline Resilience Strategies Urban forest & tree health (long-term) Risk management Community Tools Standards Best Management Practices Urban Tree Risk Management (Mitigation) Disaster Recovery UFST (Mitigation) Rebuilding to Standards & Practices 2 The overarching elements of this presentation are the concepts of long-term urban forest (and tree) health, and management of tree risk. I will outline and discuss professional standards and practices that are available to any community; and then outline urban forest risk management and tree risk management. Next, I ll introduce you to the Urban Forestry Strike Team (UFST) program and how it can play an important role for your community during disaster recovery. And finally, a few closing words on re-establishing your community's urban forest based on the standards and practices discussed earlier. Slide 3 Develop a Strategy Community strategies to increase urban forest resiliency should flow from: a Healthy trees are resilient Strength Vigor a Practices promote healthy trees ANSI A300 Standards BMP to Standards a Management guides practice UF Management Plan w/ Specs Urban Tree Risk Management 3 The detailed end result (healthy trees) Supported by practices developed from arboricultural standards That are defined in the management plan(s) Dudley R. Hartel, Center Manager Page: 2
3 Slide 4 Arboriculture Standards e Part 1: Pruning (2008) e Part 2: Soil Management (2011) e Part 3: Supplemental Support Systems (2013) e Part 4: Lightning Protection Systems (2014) e Part 5: Management (2012) e Part 6: Planting & Transplanting (2012) e Part 7: Integrated Vegetation Management (2012) e Part 8: Root Management e Part 9: Tree Risk Management (2011) e Part 10: Integrated Pest Management e Part 11: Urban Forest Products 4 4 Developed and current (green text), under development (blue text), and being revised (red text). Visit: standards for descriptions and status Of greatest importance, day-to-day, are Parts 1, 2, 6, & 9. Disaster Preparedness Impact: Immediate 9 Tree Risk (Pre & poststorm Mitigation) (red star) Short-term 1 (mature tree and young tree structural) Tree Structure (strength) (dark blue star) Longer-term 1 (young tree structural), 2 & 6 - Tree Health (Strength & Vigor)(light blue stars) Adopt needed and appropriate standards to support disaster planning, preparedness, and mitigation. From standards/current-projects (02Oct2014) Slide 5 Urb n Forestry BMPs From the standards, specifications and practices are developed. BMP development & adoption internal to your municipality or organization professional organization developed (i.e. ISA) borrowed & tailored to your situation From these sources build your manual of accepted practices Focus can be on disaster; practices that support long-term healthy urban forests will support disaster preparedness. Every community (and urban forest manager) should have a basic set of specifications developed from the standards. 5 ISA is the International Society of Arboriculture Dudley R. Hartel, Center Manager Page: 3
4 Slide 6 Urb n Forestry BMPs The essential BMPs and specifications to develop from standards and professional resources. BMP short list should match your tree/forest health objectives site evaluation requirements/techniques key species selection criteria minimum acceptable tree standards tree planting specifications first year care mulch, water, remove stakes young tree care structural pruning cycle(s) tree risk management 6 To develop a long-term strategy for resilient & sustainable urban forests. Slide 7 Focus on UF Basics a Healthy UF management program & healthy trees Implement key program components May NOT be a comprehensive approach To be effective arborists need to focus on urban forestry & arboricultural basics that can positively affect disaster outcomes, a Manage tree risk Adopt, train, and use a standard Prioritize, assess, and mitigate May NOT be a comprehensive Urban Tree Risk Management Program 7 because disaster planning & preparedness for your community is a huge task, and involvement of a range of professionals is critical. Healthy trees and identification and mitigation of tree risk are the essential components related to disaster preparedness. Slide 8 Storms, Tr s, & Conflict Tree risk in a disaster context is a spatial issue Critical facilities Hospitals Public safety Water & sewer Communications Transportation (emergency response) Population centers (response & recovery) Applying our arboricultural background and interest to benefit our community viz a viz disasters. 8 Dudley R. Hartel, Center Manager Page: 4
5 Slide 9 Tree Risk Mitigation Results a Reduced claims as they relate to trees by 72% a Reduced work order complaints and/or request for services by over 55% a Reduced 911 and overtime expenditures for tree cleanup by over 69% Measured results from an aggressive tree risk management program in Columbus, Georgia (from Rachel Barker). Five year period Columbus, Georgia (R. Barker) 9 9 Slide 10 Urban Forest Strike Teams Key components: a Assist communities with recovery efforts following a storm event a Uevelop a local, in-state and regional capacity to respond to disasters a Uevelop response protocol based on and compatible with Incident Command System a Professional arborists, trained for tree risk assessment and deployment through EMAC and/or in-state mutual aid Urban Forest Strike Teams (UFST) Overview elements. An evolution since Slide 11 Urban Forest Strike Teams Community benefit: a Communities that lack the capacity or professional expertise will benefit during the recovery phase of the disaster a Trained, experienced, Certified Arborists will be assisting communities with decisions that affect their urban forest risk & retention a a Risk evaluation of public trees remaining following initial ground debris clean-up Uata for FEMA Public Assistance (PA) Urban Forest Strike Teams (UFST) Dudley R.
