Lot and Land Clearing for All Your Development Needs

Understanding Land Disturbance Permit Requirements

Land disturbance activities, such as clearing trees, shrubs, or excavating land, can have a significant impact on the environment. In Missouri, construction projects that disturb one or more acres, or projects that are part of a larger development that will eventually disturb one or more acres require a land disturbance permit.

The primary purpose of a land disturbance permit is to protect water quality. When it rains, stormwater can pick up pollutants from exposed soil, debris, and construction materials on the site. These pollutants can then flow into nearby waterways, harming the environment. 

To obtain a permit, you must develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). This plan outlines specific measures to minimize soil erosion, prevent sediment runoff, and control pollutant discharge.

While we don’t obtain these permits for you, we can help guide you through the permit application process.

Lot and Land Clearing FAQs

Yes, lot clearing can have negative impacts on the environment, including habitat destruction, soil erosion that can lead to water pollution, and carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere that was being stored in the trees and plants.

However, it’s possible to minimize these negative impacts by hiring Arbor Masters. As lot and land clearing professionals, we are committed to use environmentally friendly methods and techniques to ensure that our work minimizes harm to the environment.

We carefully plan each project to protect existing trees and vegetation, implement erosion control measures, and explore options to offset carbon emissions. By choosing Arbor Masters, you can rest assured that we will prioritize environmental protection throughout your land clearing project.

Generally, yes, lot and land clearing can be done year-round. However, there may be specific weather conditions, like extreme weather, that limits when work can be performed.

Yes, we have the equipment and expertise to access and navigate challenging terrain. However, if you have a property with unique access challenges that you’re concerned will interfere with our ability to get the job done quickly and efficiently, we recommend that you let us know during your initial consultation.

This will allow us to assess the situation and determine the best approach to ensure a successful project. We may need to bring different equipment or adjust our plans to accommodate the access requirements of your property.

No, you don’t necessarily need to remove all trees during land and lot clearing. If there are specific trees you want to preserve, we offer professional tree preservation services that can help protect them.
