SUBJECT: Q � g REPORT FOR PROPERTY AT: DA07, De Anza 7, 10431 North De Anza Blvd.
Cupertino, CA 95014
This arborist report includes the observations and assessment of the dead European white birch
tree located at southwest corner of building across from building entrance. The site was visited
on Tuesday April 19, 2022, at 8 am.
Assignment: Review one dead European white birch tree located at 10431 North De Anza Blvd
Cupertino.
The assignment requires the following activities: visit the site, verify the tree, list the tree
species, diameter, crown radius, condition of the tree, impacts to the property, and mitigation
options.
Observations: The site was visited on Tuesday April 19, 2022, at 8 am. The tree was not tagged
with numbers, though Treeplotter was used for identification and history. The tools used were
a diameter tape, screwdriver as a probe, hammer. Crown height and radius were estimated.
The tree listed on the map was measured for trunk diameter at approximately 4.5 feet above
grade with a diameter tape. The tree was assessed and rated for health and structure, and
overall condition considering branch structure, decay, leaf quality, vitality, dieback, lean, and
other issues that affect the condition of the tree.
The tree health condition rating was determined by observing the tree foliage, twig growth, leaf
density, and dead branches. The structure rating was determined by observing branch
attachment, crotch structure, trunk flare, surface roots, decay, insects and diseases, growth
habit, and any physical damages. The overall condition combines the health and the structure
ratings, based on the most significant conditions present.
The rating system used for both health, structure, and overall condition is:
(0) 0% dead;
(1) 1-20%very poor/severe decline;
(2) 21-40% poor/declining;
(3) 41-60%fair;
(4) 61-80% good; and
(5) 81-100% excellent.

Discussion: The property is DA07 or De Anza 7, 10431 North De Anza Blvd. Cupertino, CA
95014. The European white birch tree assessed is located at the southwest corner of building
across the crosswalk from building entrance.
Conclusion: The European white birch tree is determined to be dead.
Mitigation: Plant a 24" box River Birch, Betula nigra in the same location to mitigate for the loss
of the removed tree. Betula nigra is a better candidate for a replacement tree due to enhanced
suitability for current environmental conditions as well as resistant to Bronze Birch Borer.
