So if that is the 4 case that you believe -- and the location of this tree 5 it is right next to the fence? Is it fair to say it is 6 touching the fence? 7 THE WITNESS: I don't know that it's 8 touching the fence, necessarily, but yes, it is in 9 close proximity. 10 MR. MALANGA: The logic that allowed that 11 tree to receive a reprieve from being cut down would 12 that not also hold for the other trees along Prospect 13 Avenue that are being cut down for the fence? 14 THE WITNESS: Well, those are primarily 15 being kept as of this new plan. 16 MR. MALANGA: How about tree number 4136? 17 THE WITNESS: I'm looking for it on the 18 plan right now. 19 MR. MALANGA: It's right near the 20 intersection of Prospect Avenue and Mount Pleasant 21 Avenue. 22 THE WITNESS: Yes, I do see it. Yes, that 23 is slated for removal. 24 MR. MALANGA: How about tree number 4159? 25 THE WITNESS: Fifty-nine? Page 51 1 MR. MALANGA: Understood, Mr. Chairman. 2 CHAIRMAN NEUER: And that's attached to the 3 agenda, and it was available since August 12th. 4 MR. MALANGA: That's funny. I took this 5 off the website subsequent to August 12th. 6 MS. PARLAVECCHIO: Respectfully, Mr. 7 Chairman, we've indicated he can look at that plan. If 8 he's referring to the wrong plan, as you just 9 indicated, there's a link to it on the agenda. This 10 plan has been submitted for a significant amount of 11 time now. This plan is made available to the public. 12 CHAIRMAN NEUER: We've had that discussion 13 with Mr. Malanga. If you're not going to be using the 14 more current plan, Mr. Malanga, please go on to a 15 different line of questioning. You're well past the 16 three minutes and I need you to be more focused. 17 MR. MALANGA: All right. Let's talk about 18 -- let's see, tree 4204 and 4203. Those are the two 19 London Plane Trees that we mentioned previously. 20 THE WITNESS: Yes. 21 MR. MALANGA: Did you or anyone from your 22 organization have any conservations with respect to 23 attempting to preserve these trees that are 44 inches 24 and 58 inches respectively? 25 THE WITNESS: We did not. Those are within Page 50 1 Forty-one-fifty-nine is also slated for removal. We 2 have the fence there. We also have an underground 3 utility that's going to be

espectively? 25 THE WITNESS: We did not. Those are within Page 50 1 Forty-one-fifty-nine is also slated for removal. We 2 have the fence there. We also have an underground 3 utility that's going to be going in that location. 4 MR. MALANGA: Forty-one-sixty? 5 THE WITNESS: Forty-one-sixty is in poor 6 health. 7 MR. MALANGA: How do you know that? 8 THE WITNESS: That's based on observations 9 on the field. 10 MR. MALANGA: Is that located on the plan? 11 THE WITNESS: Yes. There's a hatch on that 12 one. 13 MR. MALANGA: Well, I'm looking at a plan, 14 it's not hatched. 15 THE WITNESS: Am I looking at the wrong 16 one? You said 4159, correct? 17 MR. MALANGA: Forty-one-fifty-nine and 18 4160. 19 THE WITNESS: And 4160 -- yes, 4159 is 20 being demolished. Yes, 4160 does have a hatch. 21 MR. MALANGA: Well, not the version I have. 22 CHAIRMAN NEUER: Mr. Malanga, 23 unfortunately, and I'm very surprised, you're using the 24 earlier plan. You need to refer to the August plan, 25 which is the plan that's before the Board now. Page 52 1 the electrified perimeter that we're talking about with 2 the nature of the improvements. So again, referring to 3 the ANSI standard that I had mentioned, referring to 4 Federal and state regulations for vegetation management 5 near the electrified equipment those were cited to be 6 removed accordingly. 7 MR.
