As part of our ongoing tree pruning, maintenance and inspection program, we have detected Dutch Elm disease in three Elm trees on campus. One of the Elm trees is located near Steel Building and the others are along Elm Allee. Unfortunately, these trees have to be removed and properly disposed of immediately to help avoid the spread of this disease to other Elm trees. There are also a few trees around Bill and Denise Andrew Hall and Blanchard Hall that are either dead or dangerous that have to be removed. This removal is scheduled to take place on Saturday, and Sunday, September 13 and 14. Each tree removed will be replaced with two new trees in either the existing locations or at new locations on campus. While the contractors have been instructed that the work be executed with the least possible interference or disturbance to the campus community, a certain amount of disruption is inevitable. We thank you in advance for your patience and understanding. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Jackie MacPhail at 6034 or jmacphail@upei.ca.
