Abstract/Contents: | Reports the results of a national survey of urban tree residues associated with tree pruning and other urban forestry activities. "A total of 3,878 organizations were identified and mailed at least one survey document; 1,710 (44 percent) were returned. Of those, 1,331 surveys provided information about residue generation. For the United States, the generators reported slightly over 17.7 million cubic yards per year of residue produced. Over 11 million cubic yards of chips, or 67 percent of total residue, are produced every year. Unchipped tops and brush follow at 1.3 million cubic yards per year or nine percent of the total." |
