Empire Tree Services Hero Image

The Critical Area includes all land within 1,000 feet of the mean high water line of tidal waters or the edge of tidal wetlands of the Chesapeake and Coastal Bays. The Critical Area Buffer is at least 100 feet of natural vegetation landward from these water lines and is expanded to include sensitive areas. Maps delineating this area are available at local planning and zoning offices; contact Calvert County Community Planning and Building for confirmation.

All vegetation removal, including dead trees, requires a permit and possibly a Buffer Management Plan. Tree cutting on waterfront lots, regardless of tree size, is regulated, and removal within the 100-foot Buffer is restricted to certain conditions with a permit. Removal of invasive species is permitted with a Buffer Management Plan, and planting native vegetation is encouraged and sometimes requires approval.

  • In St. Mary’s County, contact Amber Thompson at (301) 475-4200 ext. 1542.

TESTIMONIALS

What do our clients say?

Armstrong B.

Empire Tree Services Client

I would highly recommend this company. Two 75-foot trees cut down in less than 8 hours was mind blowing to me. If you needed a definition in the dictionary for teamwork you would find this company there!

Tammie M.

Empire Tree Services Client

I ran into a tree removal emergency and needed help ASAP. Not only was Rodney able to accommodate my timeline, but he was thorough and thoughtful in explaining the process as this was my first time needing tree removal ... I’d highly recommend Empire Tree.

Empire Tree 🌲 far exceeded our expectations! We were impressed by their professional tree debris removal efforts following the record-breaking winter snowstorm of two weeks prior. Prompt, courteous and thorough service at a fair price are Empire Tree's trademarks.

I had a great experience with Empire Tree. The owner, Rodney, was very responsive and professional. He was able to come out the same day I called and provided a fair estimate ... I highly recommend Empire Tree for any tree services you may need.

I’m so glad I called this company! They did exactly as we asked - great price! They also cleaned up nicely too! I will always recommend this company. We had an old oak tree trimmed, plus 6 stumps grinded. They did this in a couple hours! Called Wednesday, completed the work Friday evening.
