That's correct, if the tree is imminently dangerous to public safety
call the Council, as well as notifying your clients and, if appropriate
we would deal with it under the Misc. Prov. Act accordingly. In all
fairness to Arb. Consultants, you only need to bring it to the attention
of an appropriate person. Just bear in mind the limitations of the Misc.
Prov. Act. I actually really enjoy dealing with trees under these
circumstances.

'As a surveyor legally should I go further and notify the off site tree
owner? '

'Presumably if the risk was enormous, someone at the HSE would have
realised this and be demanding that inspectors are appointed and given
draconian powers to remedy whatever problems were pinpointed.'


Being the last 'professional' on site, if you identified such an
'enormous'
risk, you should bring it to the attention of the relevant landowner, LA
or even have it dealt with yourself. If you walked away, and it was
determined that you had identified and not dealt with such a problem
that then caused damage or injury, I suspect that the 'buck' may stop
with you? Of course, proving you had 'identified' it may be another
matter, but could your conscience live with it?

Cheers
