  trim, and remove all trees, shrubs, bushes, underbrush, and other items, as determined
  necessary by VTrans for the safe and efficient operation and maintenance of the facilities.
  The Grantor, its successors and assigns, will not, without the prior written permission
  of VTrans, erect or permit the erection of any building or any other structure; plant
  or permit the growth of any trees or bushes; change the grade or permit the change
  of grade, or fill or excavate within this easement area which will adversely affect
