Lab will be based on <br /> maximum 5 person consensus groups solving each of the <br /> four hypotheticals. <br /> 8:30 - 8:45 Break <br /> 8 :45 - 9:15 Discussion of the results of the lab. <br /> 9:15 - 10:15 Lecture on 90 -3 -90 Utility Line Clearance Pruning <br /> 10:15 - 11:00 Lab on 90 -3 -90 <br /> Lab will include four to five hypothetical 90 -3 -90 scenarios. <br /> Lab will be based on maximum 5 person consensus groups <br /> solving each of the hypotheticals. <br /> 11:00 - 11:30 Discussion of the results of the lab. <br /> 11:30 - 12:00 Lunch <br /> 12:00 - 3:30 (4:00) P.M <br /> Practical application of principles discussed in Lecture - Lab, using trees <br /> growing near utility line. Diagnosis and appropriate 90 -3 -90 treatment. <br /> Discussion of intention, predicting tree response, predicting length of <br /> effect, predicting follow -up treatment. <br />
