handover certificate is issued by the Client’s Representative or Consultant.

The temporary measures are taken specially for early planting prior to having the
irrigation system operational. These measures are:

a. Daily hand watering of palms at an average rate of 120-150 liters/day. The

water shall be from the approved source assigned by the Client’s
Representative or Consultant to Bloom Landscape LLC to utilize. The source
now being the on-site main line/water tank.
b. Re-wrapping of palm fronds, if falling
c. Re-establishing the palm water retaining basin.
d. Manual fertilization should take place after the tree start showing new
growth development.
e. Weeding of the palm basin of any undesirable vegetation.
f. Spraying fungicides/insecticides if the tree shows any disease symptoms
(curative). As a preventive measure one drenching of 4 liters of diluted
fungicide/palm would be applied once/ 2 weeks.
g. Re-staking the palm if falling or if the tree stakes/Tree ties become loose.
h. Rooting hormone application once a month would be applied. This
application is an additional application to the one administrated at the
Nursery before transferring the palm to the site.
Permanent Measures
The permanent measures to be taken after having the irrigation system operational.
Period of maintenance after planting to be as per contract of project. (01-year
maintenance as per specified in the Contract)

The same maintenance activities performed described as temporary measures shall be

continued with two exceptions. The exception being:

a. Plants should be watered immediately after planting. Make a circular watering

basin slightly larger than the planting hole. During establishment of grass areas
(stolen or sod) sufficient water is applied to maintain healthy growth. Watering

should be twice daily for one week (or until 100% coverage of the grass planted by
stools is achieved. Palms, trees, shrubs and ground covers should be watered
thoroughly immediately after planting. First watering must be with sufficient
amount to saturate the growing medium.
b. Periodic fertilization shall be ideally carried out through the irrigation system and
not manually, thus discharging a fixed/known rate of fertilization. The fertilizers
shall be as per the approved materials submittal.

Environmental Impact

All works will be undertaken in accordance with the Construction Environmental

Management Plan. The main environmental impacts and considerations associated with
environment are as follows:

Pest and Disease Control

Bloom Landscape will maintain proper controls by spraying at such frequencies and in
such amounts as to prevent insect and disease problems. Bloom Landscape will carry out
checks every month to identify any cursive organisms and treatment shall be target
oriented. Palms will be inspected for signs of boreholes in their trunk. If these are present
both stem and head shall be treated twice with insecticide, in mid-May and again in June
as approved by Engineer. Control measures shall be timely addresses to major pests like
Red Palm Weevil, Root Knot Nematodes, Mealy Bugs, Fruit Stalk Borer, Termites etc.
Control measures is subject on a regular monitoring according to pest and disease
problems. Bloom Landscape will get approval of the Engineer before every chemical
application jobs and it shall be done in accordance with Manufacturer’ instructions.
A Preventive pesticide program will be implemented by the Bloom Landscape Supervisor
following the procedure and guidelines. (Full detailed will be in the submittal on
Operational maintenance manual OMM).
