All trees have a finite lifespan and all trees eventually fail. Tree risk assessments are a systematic process used to identify, analyze, and evaluate the risk associated with tree, limb, trunk, or root failure. The overall goal is to provide information that helps manage risk to people and property while preserving tree benefits.
