Grind the stump to below ground level (or as directed by the Council) and backfill with suitable material. Make good the ground on completion. No other trees are included in this application. Removal plan 1. A qualified, insured arborist will carry out the work in accordance with BS 3998:2010 Tree work ? Recommendations. 2.

The stump will be ground out to a sufficient depth to allow replanting or making good of the surface. 6. All waste wood, brash and grindings will be removed from site and disposed of responsibly. Infected material associated with Ganoderma will not be left on site. 7. Work will be timed to avoid peak bird-nesting season unless a pre-works check confirms no active nests. 8.
