Richard ,
Your maths is horrible , should be £7450. cost per hectare will depend if it's
newly established woodland , thicket stage or already thinned etc , Forestry
commission would probably give you suitable advice.

Garnett, Richard  (30/12/2004  12:37):
Dear all

A quick question on the cost of woodland maintenance for 10 years because of
disagreement with woodland to be adopted by the LPA in the future.

Based on minimum maintenance regime, the cost of maintaining a m2 per annum
would be 74.5 pence. Therefore, £7.45 for 10 years per m2.

10,000 sq metres = 1 hectare so maintenance of 1ha woodland for 10 years 
would
be £74,500.

Is my maths bad regarding the placing of the decimal point because £74k for
minimal maintenance over 10 years appears excessive, especially for minimal
maintenance like litter picking and odd tree surgery work.

Does anybody know of any national guidance or recognised guidance on cost of 
a
m2  of woodland or cost for a hectare for a year

Thanks

Richard
