| Abstract/Contents: | States that "the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has predicted a stormy 2007." Reports that "even a relativly mild hurricane's high winds and fierce rains can wreck havoc on [a] client's landscapes. Suggests some steps to take before the storm including "consulting with [the client] well before a storm hits." States that "the most important concern is the careful removal of unstable trees or tree limbs that may be hanging precariously over the home, or anywhere near the house." Lists possible ways to prevent erosion and flooding. Presents a checklist of suggested things to do before a hurricane, including pre-and-post storm tasks. |
