An application has been received from the person named to fell 0.84ha, which is currently being processed.  While it is not possible to pay compensation, it is open to the applicant to plant an alternative area in lieu of the area felled. The proposed alternative planting site must be submitted for approval prior to the issuing of the felling licence.
