Removal Targets:
- Invasive and exotic species
- Dead, diseased, or damaged plants
- Fire-hazardous vegetation
- Access-blocking overgrowth
- Competitive weed species
🌊 Progressive Clearing
Staged Approach:
- Phase 1: Access route establishment
- Phase 2: Major vegetation removal
- Phase 3: Selective fine clearing
- Phase 4: Cleanup and finishing
- Phase 5: Follow-up maintenance
Environmental Benefits:
- Reduced wildlife displacement
- Soil erosion prevention
- Seed bank preservation
- Natural regeneration support
- Ecosystem gradual adjustment
