So... 3 CHAIRMAN NEUER: Thank you. 4 THE WITNESS: So a tree that's 5 2-and-a-half to 6-inches in diameter, it's a 6 one-to-one replacement. 7 As you go to 6 to 13, it's a 8 four-to-one replacement; 13 to 22, it's a six-tree 9 replacement; 23 to 32, it's an eight-tree 10 replacement. Over 33 inches, it's a ten-tree 11 replacement. 12 So it's -- it's very aggressive in 13 terms of the replacement. It's much, much more 14 stringent than the State had proposed. 15 BY MR. TURTELTAUB: 16 Q. And by going to the larger number of 17 trees to replace, does that signify anything to you 18 with respect to the value placed on larger trees 19 versus smaller trees? 20 A. Well, it's supposed to be an incentive 21 not to remove large, healthy trees. You know, so 22 that's -- because in this situation, they're removing 23 -- they're proposing to remove trees that are perhaps 24 70- to 100-foot tall, that presently shield the 25 structure from view from Mount Pleasant and Prospect
