Manual itinerant work hand planting tree seedlings, pre-commercial thinning, herbicide application, and pruning to reforest and maintain timberlands. Sow seeds, raise and transport seedlings in a tree bag. Walk along seedling tree rows, stoops, and pull clumps of seedlings from loosened soil. Knock clumps together to dislodge soil and loosen roots, and place seedlings in field trays. Plant tree seedlings in specified pattern, using a mattock, planting hoe or dibble. Dig holes at pre-determined intervals and insert seedling. Tamp soil around plant with foot and planting tool. Select optimum planting location to meet spacing, soil, and shade requirements. Bare soil. Use a chainsaw, brush blade, power thinning saws or other hand-held equipment to prepare site for planting by thinning, spacing and removing excess trees and other vegetation. Select and cut out diseased, weak, or undesirable trees, according to markings or size, species, and grade using hand or powered saw. Cut brush and other vegetation and may chip debris and move slash (wood debris) away from roads, fire trails, and remaining trees. Spray or inject trees, brush, and weeds with herbicides to combat insects, pests, and harmful diseases using hand or powered sprayers or tree injector tool. Use a backpack sprayer or other hand held tools to spray or inject vegetation with herbicides to kill insects, protect against disease, and to reduce competing vegetation. Prune limbs of young trees to deter knot growth using handsaw, power saw and pruning tools or other hand held equipment. These jobs involve propagating, protecting, and managing, forest tracts. Employer may pay piece rates of $33.00 per 1000 seedlings planted, $10.00 per acre fertilized, $4.50 per acre sprayed, and $20.00 per acre thinned correctly, depending on worksite location, but not less than the prevailing wage in the area of intended employment.
