in theory sure why not, anytime you stress, or cause harm or damage to a tree regrowth can happen. so i see what your saying in some cases it could be a deceiving thing with the end result.
Yeah, I like natural.
Good taking to you Matt.

Here are the stressed maples at the day of injection I'll try and keep you guys updated as they progress.
You've got some issues with this one. My main concern would be structural stability. Start digging.
That tree needs to meet a chipper , the only thing on that tree I would try to save is some wood
So, I finally got the check from the state job I did at the local college a few months back. I was subcontracted by a company out of Connecticut. The check showed up this morning but for some reason was $275 short. On the stub they wrote "held retention". Any of you guys have an idea what that means? I can't exactly call their office till Monday to find out what's up. It's not that it is a large amount in comparison to the rest of the job just wondering if this has ever happened to anyone else on these state jobs as this is my first one. I do have another job in the works with them but no signed contract or go ahead yet as I told them I wouldn't start it till I got paid for the last one. Any thoughts?

Will you be pruning out the dead?

Unfortunately, this is fairly standard. We are used to dealing with a client who pays us at the end of the day for a job completed. When you are dealing with state, government or large commercial jobs etc., they hold a portion of your money until the job has been completed and passed all inspections. You are being grouped in with all the other trades in regards to performance. You need to read the contract very carefully and in the future ask the general contractor if you can be exempted from the retention clause since your not really a traditional trade.
Did ya wear 2 different color socks to there job , cause I feel large contractors and more so the state will look for anything to keep something from your pay , but on a more serious note the job as a whole may have a bond on it and when the jobs completed and without warranty or backcharge work that money is released , you may be waiting til the end to get that M just a thought and I am not certain at all what your situation is

So, I waited for over 1 hour in the yard this morning for FleetWash to show up. They said 7am and I was there from 6:50am until 8:15am for them to show up. Pissed me off. But they did a good job,,

buy your guys some scrub brushes. be like the karate kid wax on wax off. maybe it will help with chainsaw handling skills.
Hi Matt, Quick lesson on living here!
Water run-off goes to the ocean and they got guy's that just drive around all day looking for run-off. Big fine ($) doing that!
If your truck's leak anything, or if you wash your truck's, including the rain that pushes your contamination, your screwed.
Jeff :msp_wink:
I dont understand how you guys do it out there. That has to be crazy that you can get a fine for the runoff off of your vehicle. I can see that your closer to the ocean and all but around here people just wash there trucks and cars. The new carb laws then you have to pay for the water to be picked up after they wash a vehicle is pretty crazy.
