When it comes to the safety and longevity of the environment within Australia, all levels of government take it very seriously.
For Developers of all levels, there are rules, regulations and standards that need to be adhered to in terms of the environment before, during and after the development project.
AS4970-2009 is a vital document that provides guidance for the care and protection of trees.
AS4970-2009 Protection of Trees On Development Sites sets out the guidelines for the safe and ongoing integration between trees and construction within development sites.
The Australian Standard is neither pro or anti-development, nor for or against the removal of trees. The standard is in place to ensure the correct processes are followed.
The Australian Standard also references a range of other standard documents including:
All assessments and reporting carried out by Treescience strictly adheres to and complies with the guidelines documented within the Australian Standards.
I have worked with Treescience on a variety of my residential and commercial building ventures, and when it comes to Council's development guidelines and tricky technical vegetation issues, I know that my projects are in the right hands. I enjoy working with Treescience… their team's knowledge and professionalism is exceptional in all areas of eco-management.
Treescience continues to deliver to their high qualifications, understanding the issues unique to each development situation and have been of great environmental assistance to us and our projects
